Who's responsible for keeping track of "auto-outs"?

[Alameda]

Hey all.

New here and to Umpiring. I have torn threw the manual and can't find where this particular part of the rule is addressed.

I'm doing low div C0-ED games, and today one of the teams played the game with 9 players. At one point, the official score keeper mentioned that she thought one of the automatic outs hadn't been recorded in a previous inning. The PU said she thought they had all been recorded. I was playing the field, and wasn't sure myself. Fortunately the game was decided by a handful of runs, so the outcome was not in question. This is a lowly div in a city league in San Francisco and NOBODY wears numbers. With 3 games and 6 teams, are we suppose to remember faces and names?? *shrugs shoulders*

Who -is- responsible for keeping track of this (from what I saw the short-handed team was telling the PU when that spot came up).

TYIA, hope I didn't miss an obvious part of the ASA Umps manual.
