As I understand it, a suspended game is to be resumed with the same score, inning, batter, and count it had when it was suspended. But what happens if some of the players are no longer available, e.g., injured or traded?
Or what about players who had played in the suspended game but were taken out via a pitching change or pinch hitter, etc. I suppose they're still unavailable when the game resumes. But what if they were since traded. Obviously they're even more unavailable, but since they're not even on the team anymore, must the manager designate a replacement unavailable player to fill in for the unavailable player and not play, or does the manager have the possible advantage of using new players who weren't on the team back when the game was suspended?
Convoluted scenario, I know, but I was wondering.
