injury replacment

Question
Last week i was involved in a game of mens slow pitch softball, i broke my wrist in the top of the first inning playing defense, therefore never batted.  We were fielding 10 and batting a DH, we were going to move the DH to the field and just bat 10 after that, but we were then told we could not and unless we found a replacement it would be an automatic out in my spot in the lineup every time at bat.  I was under the impression that if your team has not batted yet that you can still change up the lineup, what is your take on the situation.  Thank you for your time.

Answer
Hi Nick,

sorry about your wrist.

It's actually an "EP" extra player, not a DH.  You bat 11 and any 10 play defense.  

Unfortunately w/out a sub once the line-up is official (accepted by the umpire at the start of the game) you need to take an out every-time your bp comes up.  

This is a hazard w/ playing w/ all you have.  Had you been ejected the game would be a forfeit if there is no sub for you.
