After the dust cleared and both coaches were on the field we got it all cleared up, that it was not only the plate umpires call and the intent of the rule was to keep from happening what did happen. Both coaches were satisfied and we played on with runners on first and second and two outs. The next batter hit a single and scored the winning run from second. Oh I forgot to mention that this was the bottom of the 13th and we were tied 1 to 1.

I'm confused. If You had three outs, how did you play on? How did you only have two outs when play continued on? What happened to the third out? Just because the IFR was in effect does not prevent the other out from happening. The failure of the players to hear or to heed the call does not change the fact that the IFR was on. Am I missing something here?
