Now do I
a) Simply call B7 out. Tell B9 to head to the dugout and say play ball.
b) Call B7 out. Tell B9 to head to the dugout and tell the coach, B7 was your last batter.
c) Do something else?

What if the coach specifically asks me who should bat next? What if it's the defense who asks?

I simply tell them, "#34 (B7) is out for batting out of order, #56 (B9) comes off the bases, and runners return. The next batter is the one who follows #34." I guarantee you both coaches will have their lineup cards, and both coaches will know who's supposed to be up next. If the OC tries to pull it again, we'll now have 2 outs.

Dakota's right. The likelihood of BOO happening immediately after this is unlikely.
