QUESTION: But they never bat,just play defense and not on the lineup still is not a forfeit
Answer
Nope, not a forfeit. It sounds like this is just a Flex player that wasn't listed on the line up card. At worst you have a situation where this player made a play and recorded an out. The rules address what needs to be done in this situation. It is definitely not a forfeit.
