Shame on you. And you are a coach. The correct procedure on an infield fly is to lead off just enough to beat the throw back to your base after the catch. In other words, on an infield fly to deep short, R1 is probably going a third of the way to second.

The situation that I am thinking about can have runners at any bases in all possible combinations. No one has the answer yet. I am going out for lunch and will answer it when I get back.

Not where I coach. You are not going to attempt to advance on an IFF at any level where the players shave, even if the ball is dropped or allowed to fall. Therefore there is no need to get a lead.
