I know how to score a baseball game. But, I've been asked to fill in for an NCAA Softball game. Anything different I need to know?
If there's an issue with the DH/EH/DEFO (or whatever) players, do I bring that to the attention of the umpire? Can players re-enter? Do I bring that to the attention of the umpire?
Thanks

Isn't it the coach's job to point out any lineup changes or violations?
I've scored a lot of baseball games and I've never said anything besides hello to an ump unless I was asked. I'd assume it's the same in softball.
...ok, well, I can think of a couple times I've blurted out "that's ball three" when a batter was prematurely sent to first, but only when I was keeping score in the dugout as a coach.
Only thing I know, and it is from watching on TV, is you can substitute pinch run and then original player be re entered. not sure how many an inning of if a player can be pinch run for more than once.
