It's a mixed team and only the women score by pinch running.

Three outs to an inning. A maximum of three men left on base. That's six. The only way for another three to come to the plate in an inning without a run scoring would be if at least once was pinch-hit for.
It is possible to pull a batter and replace him during any given plate appearance. If replacing a batter is answered by the opposing team replacing it's pitcher, then it's conceivable that the team at bat could then replace the pinch hitter with another pinch hitter. However, the opposition cannot then replace it's pitcher, as a pitcher must pitch to at least one batter (unless he's injured while taking his warm-up pitches).
Once a pinch-hitter HS been recorded as such by the umpire-in-chief of the game (that's the plate umpire), he is officially in the game. Being announced over the PA or by the press has nothing to do with this process. But once that hitter has been accepted into the game, his is in the game, even if he doesn't see a pitch. In other words, he can't then be removed from the game AND be available to pinch hit latter in the game or come in for defensive purposes later in the game.
There's no riddle to this one. It's just about understanding the rules.

Bases are loaded plus three outs that's 7 men. 2 others got ejected while at bat or on base.
Good?

load bases so thats 4 guys including the guy standing. throw out at home and 3rd on steal attempt. 2 singles to load again without scoring. so thats now 7. 2 pinch hitters.
