Rule 4-1A-2  compared to NFHS 3-1-Penalty
This is not permitted
Eligible roster members can be added to the available substitute list at any time without penalty
The umpire will add the player to the line-up and shall issue a team warning to Team A’s head coach.
The umpire will add the player to the line-up and restrict the coach to the dugout/bench area for submitting an inaccurate line-up card.
B1 is holding the bat as if to bunt the incoming pitch, with the barrel of the bat extending over the plate. As the pitch comes in B1 makes no attempt to contact the ball, nor do they withdraw the bat, they simply hold the bat stationary over the plate as the pitch comes in outside of the strike zone. The plate umpire rules the pitch a strike as the barrel of the bat was not pulled backward and away from the ball. This is the correct call.
