Scenario: Top 2nd inning, Runners on 1st(B4) and 3rd(B1), 2 outs(B2&B3). Batter 5 count 3-2, walks on a wild pitch (pitch is a ball). While proceeding to 1st base, batter 1 on third base attempts to steal home on the wild pitch and is out at home. The out occurs before batter 5 touches 1st base. 3rd out. Head to the bottom of the 2nd. Question is: Who leads off the Top of the 3rd inning? Batter 5 (because they didn’t make it to 1st on the walk) or batter 6. Using GameChanger as my book, it tells me batter 6 is the leadoff batter. The opposing book keeper sends batter 5 to the plate. We don’t notice this and batter 5 gets on with an error to our pitcher. Batter 6 runs to the plate and as we notice this isn’t the correct batter, our frustrated pitcher delivers a pitch. No Batted out of Order can be called because of it, but I’m curious who should have led off?

Two outs, runner on third. Player takes off for home, batter swings, strike three. Catcher drops ball, runner takes off for first, catcher throws to first. Runner scores before put out at first, what's the ruling? Does the run count? Happened today at one of our games, never encountered a problem like this before.
