Samuels, T. 1
Note: The DH is terminated because the pitcher moved to a defensive position, so Johnson cannot enter the game.
Hipp, C.
If the manager only gives you those changes, the new pitcher bats in the DH spot. If he makes more than one change (not including the pitcher going to RF) then he must tell you where he is placing them in the order. This can only be done on defense.
