MD, we aren't disputing anything about "the player who should have batted". On a BOO appeal, that player is always out, be it co-ed, men's, women's, slow pitch fastpitch, whatever.

We are talking about the improper batter. The batter who actually batted when she wasn't supposed to, not the one who should have batted.

Read the last sentence of the "comment" that follows the new rule.

That sentence states that, in co-ed play, an out made by the improper batter stands. This is contrary to all other divisions of play, where (with the 2013 rule change) an out made by an improper batter is negated.
