Cool

Read this in NFHS Guide,

[QUOTE]A veteran umpire once erroneously called an IF in a game with runners
on second and third. Slick fielding all-star SS looked straight at the umpire
and said, "IF?" Quickly realizing the error, the umpire pointed at her and said,
"You'd better catch it!" Laughing at the reply, she easily moved under the
ball to make the catch.
Obviously, an improperly declared infield fly is not an infield fly.
