With R1 on 1B, B3 skips B2 in the batting order. The error is discovered by the opposing team personnel and reported to the umpire or official scorekeeper (a) after B3 has a 0-2 count, (b) after B3 has reached 1B safely advancing R1 and before a pitch to B4, or (c) after B3 has reached 1B safely and a pitch has been delivered to B4.
RULING: In (a), B3 is replaced by B2 who assumes the 0-2 count also any advancement by R1 is legal. In (b), B2 is out and B3 is removed from base and bats again with a 0-0 count with R1 returning to 1B. In (c), no
correction is made and B2 simply loses their turn to bat until it comes UP again in the batting order. (1-BATTING ORDER 7-2)
