If there was a pitcher or catcher on base at the time (bases were actually loaded, although I wasn't sure if a pitcher or catcher was one of the runners), could the coach have made the re-entry of #11, removing #13 from the bases. Then, could #13 have been a CR for a pitcher or catcher on base? (There had been no CR usage up to this point in the game.)

I have to agree with Duke, any player may be CR; in this case #13 whether she has re-entry or not.

For the original sub comment, you did not say #13 was on base. Ok, then #11 would be on base; leaving 2 other possible runners as pitcher or catcher .

Given coaches general weakness on terms ("the SS interfered" ); I suggest asking the coach if he/she meant pinch runner or courtesy runner.


Pool play lineup exceptions have been ambiguous at best.
