			Sounds like a valid protest to me.  As the Flex (used to be called a DEFO), you may never play offense only.  So,Top of 5th, FLEX has left the game.  Bottom of 5th, FLEX uses the re-entry & is back in the game.  Top of 6th, FLEX has left the game again - and is done for this game.  Later in top of 6th, FLEX re-enters again.  Plate umpire should not have allowed this - I am assuming here that lineup cards were given to PU (Having been burnt by this once in a drunken SP game, I bring my own, just in case the teams say they don't have any).  Anyway, since PU allowed your team to re-enter the (same) FLEX a second time, PU allowed an ineligible player into the game.  Protest should be upheld.
