B3 goes to second. If you take the "last person with a completed at bat" as you do above, you would have a problem in the following situation: B1 out B2 out B3 out Sub player X for B3 (for the defensive half inning) By your logic, you are saying that B3 is up. Actually its X for B3. Ecssentially meaning the person occupying the spot in lineup where last completed at bat occurred. |

I was reading after B2 out: B3, B4 and B5 on the bases when B6 hit that homer. However, you're talking BOO here. Then we have: Sec. 2. BATTING ORDER. d. The first batter in each inning shall be the batter whose name follows that of the last player who completed a turn at bat in the preceding inning. EFFECT - Sec. 2c-d: Batting out-of-order is an appeal play that may be made by the manager, coach, or player of the defensive team only. The defensive team forfeits it's right to appeal for batting out-of-order when all fielders have clearly vacated their normal fielding positions and have left air territory on their way to the bench or dugout. 1. If the error is discovered while the incorrect batter is at bat (a) The correct batter may legally take his place, and assume the ball and strike count of the incorrect batter. (b) Any runs scored or bases run while the incorrect batter is at bat shall be legal. 2. If the error is discovered after the incorrect batter has completed his turn at bat and before a legal or illegal pitch has been made to another batter (a) The player who should have batted is out. (b) Any advance or score made as a result of the improper batter becoming a batter-runner shall be nullified. Any out that is made prior to discovering this infraction, remains out. (c) The next batter is the player whose name follows that of the player called out for failing to bat. If the next player was the incorrect batter who was called out, go to the next person in the line-up. Then yes, you are correct B4 is at bat. The homer by B6 is nullified and has not a complete turn at bat. At the score-sheet will show up that B3 has however a complete turn at bat. Even while she didn't show up at bat... I must read much s l o w e r, when it's in the Queens English. Sorry for the miscommunication and for making myself look like an idiot. |

Think about the logic behind the rule.
What we are trying to avoid is to have a runner on base when it is their turn to bat. By using the batter preceding the one who is due up, the odds are reduced to the minimum. |

There are multiple ways to define it, unfortunately it seems that no matter how simple it is offered, there is always someone who doesn't get it or doesn't want to get it. |

I had one 10-inning game last year and one this year. The tiebreaker did its job since both times the game ended that inning. EDIT: If two teams from different leagues are playing each other we use the home team's league rules. In state tournament games the tiebreaker starts in the 10th and the run rule is 10 after 5. |

Last I heard, Mississippi plays NFHS slow pitch in the fall (FP in the spring). |
