My comments in red.

13) Which of the following events results in a game being forfeited?

a. A male player leaves a Coed game due to injury with no available substitute, leaving females batting back to back. Take an out in the batting order whenever a player leaves the game for any reason other than ejection.
b. A pitcher is removed from the pitching position for excessive conferences and there is not a substitute available. Pitcher can play another position, not ejected.
c. An illegal substitute is entered into the game and there is not a legal substitute available to replace the illegal substitute. RS 51 A game is forfeited to a substitution violation when a player is removed by the umpire returns to the same game as this is use of an illegal player, or if the ejection creates a situation where there are not enough players to continue the game.
d. A runner deliberately and flagrantly runs over a defensive player holding the ball ready to apply the tag on the runner, and there is no available substitute. “Flagrant” results in ejection.

e. All of the above. 4.1.D.1.A; 4.8.A Effect; 4.1.D.2.G
