| July 3 Bruce M Men's 55 140 posts | Hi Nvjimmymac - The answer is found in 1.41 of the rule book: When it becomes apparent that a batted ball will be an infield fly, the umpire shall immediately declare, "infield fly - batter is out", to aid the runners...Failure of the umpire to call "infield fly," does not negate the infield fly. If the error is discovered prior to the next pitch, the infield fly rule may still be called. |
