How to fill out a baseball lineup card
List your nine starters in the order they will bat, with each player’s fielding position noted using the standard abbreviations: P (pitcher), C (catcher), 1B, 2B, 3B, SS (shortstop), and LF, CF, RF for the outfield, plus DH for the designated hitter. Write your bench players in the substitutes block so you can find a pinch hitter or defensive replacement fast, and keep the pitchers list handy for your bullpen. Exchange cards with the opposing coach and the umpire before the game, and log every substitution as you make it.
