another line up card question

Where did you learn such a great concept?

As most everyone stated, under Federation and ASA rules, line up changes of this type are not necessary to record, with the exception of DP for the flex or if the DP comes into pitch/catch (CR implications).

However, NCAA does have a penalty for an incorrect line up card (a correct line up card includes, first/last name, number and position). As Steve mentioned, the designation of "B" (for "Bench") keeps the coach or UMPIRE from using the dreaded "Temporary DP."
