BOO Question

Why is B3 out?

Because the pitch to B1 legitimized B2's at bat making the proper batter B3, since B1 batted in B3"s spot, B3 is called out, B1 is removed from base and B2 is returned to 1st and B4 is the next batter with 1 out.

If the defense had appealed before the pitch to B1, then B1 would have been called out, and B2 would have been removed from 1st and she would bat again.
