With no outs, and R1 on 2B, B4 bats in place of B2 and reaches 2B safely. R1 advances home, but misses 3B. F5 obtains the ball and properly appeals the infraction by R1 and the umpire declares R1 out. Prior to a pitch being made, the defense discovers that B4 was not the proper batter and informs the umpire.

Here's my try. R1 is out for missing third after proper appeal (one out). B2 is out for the battling out of order (two outs). B4 is removed from second base, and B3 now bats with two out and nobody on base.
