Greetings to all.
This is my first post on this forum. I am a new umpire (born in '68) working mostly HS ball under NFHS rules. I now have a whole two games under my belt behind the plate. I have been a baseball fan my whole life and I wanted to be involved in the game some how so I decided that I would rather umpire baseball than coach it. (Mainly because coaching basketball is much more hands on and interactive than coaching baseball).

I don't like doing anything half-a$$ed so I am trying to become as good an umpire as I can. So far reading the posts on this site has been enlightening and I have already learned alot.

So that being said, I had a bases-loaded, one out situation in my last game. The game is close so the infield is in. B1 hits a medium low pop up that was over F6's head. I can't quite tell is this is going to make the outfield but F6 is running back on the ball and I see F8 charging as well.

F6 gets under the ball about two steps on the outfield grass with about a second to spare.

Is this a ball that can be caught with ordinary effort and is there fore an infield fly?

Thanks,
Jason
