Rule of writing, depending on how you start writing the numbers on a piece of writing, whether numerically or by wording, you have to keep it that way throughout the whole writing piece.

First, second, third, fourth = CORRECT
1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 1, 942 = CORRECT
First, second, 3rd, 9000! = INCORRECT
