He was right, Flex batted as the number 10 spot in line up, DP was batting in the 5 spot.

The bottom line is he just wanted an out to start the next inning - since he had already gotten the third out of that inning.

I told him that wasn't going to happen -so he moved on. At this point the offending coach comes out and pulls the Flex from the game. So that's that.

At this point I realized I was at a loss as to what I SHOULD have done.

I've read an old thread (2007), went through the Rule Book, and have come up with this.

When I was told Flex had batted in the 10 spot, I should have DQ Flex for being Illegal Batter.

The batter in the second spot would lead off the next inning.

Does this sound correct ?
