Same inning.
If you run for someone else, then come to bat and get on.
Can you have someone else run for you all with the courtesy runner rules?
Thanks much appreciated.
If the answer is no can you point me to the rule and section.

NO • See Rulebook §8.5(2) • USING A RUNNER ON BASE at page 50 ...
"A runner who is replaced with a courtesy runner may not be used as a courtesy runner for the remainder of the inning."

Dave--this is not a runner replaced. I understand that, this is a courtesy runner for someone else, they then come to bat and get on...can they have a courtesy runner. Thanks D2

Ooops! ... I mis-read the fact pattern ... There is nothing in the Rulebook that prohibits the ACTUAL scenario you described ... My apologies ...
