courtesy runner for the DP????

Sue,

I didn't look at the rest of your question in too much detail, but did notice something that looks a bit strange to me. You give the starting line up card, but then say at the start of the game Dave is pitching rather than Tim. The lineup card has Dave as the DP (he only bats), and Tim listed as the Flex, playing Pitcher. Can you clarify what the real situation was? If what the coach meant to say was that s/he was staring the the game with 9 players with Dave as the Pitcher, and batting, and Tim is going to come into the game at some point as the Flex - this would not be legal as the DP/Flex designations must be correctly identified prior to the start of the game - I believe.
