| Fast pitch: Tie game, in the top of the eighth inning. The offensive coach asks the umpires what they are supposed to do. The umpires tell the coach to place the batter due to bat last in this inning on second base and proceed with their normal lineup. B9 is scheduled to bat, but the team misunderstands the umpire and puts B9 on second base as R1 to begin the tie-breaker. B1 comes to bat and hits a ball between F7 and F8. R1 scores and B1 is thrown out at 2B. After calling time, the defensive coach appeals that the wrong runner was on 2B and the wrong batter just hit.

| the correct runner that should have been on 2B is B8. that runner should be put onto 2B after the appeal. we also have batting out of order, as B9 should have batted, not B1. the proper batter is out [B9] and the next batter is now up to bat [B1]. the out made on the improper batter's at bat counts, so the out on B1 at 2B counts. we now have 2 outs, B8 on 2B, B1 is at bat

| The Nov is correct. I must add that this could have been avoided had the plate umpire had done some preventive Umpiring by checking the actual books and keeping up with his line up card.
