That rule is almost correct.

Rule 3.08 If no announcement of a substitution is made, the substitute shall be considered as having entered the game when -

1. If a pitcher, he takes his place on the pitcher's plate (rubber);

2. If a batter, he takes his place in the batter's box;

3. If a fielder, he reaches the position usually occupied by the fielder he has replaced, and play commences;

4. If a runner, he takes the place of the runner he has replaced.

Any play made by, or on, any of the above mentioned unannounced substitutions shall be legal.
