I agree with you guys, batter out IFF, all runners score. Just think if you had 2 outs, bases clear and BR to 3rd. You would probably have to dump the coach.

the wind, what the heck is that about? You guys can be funny. Hey, next time a fielder misses a fly ball, I am going to have them to do it over due to the sun being to bright!

From J/R, quoted in 2005 BRD, "when determining ordinary effort, wind is a factor; sun in the fielder's eyes is not a factor." I make a point of going over the wind in pregame on very windy days, ie let's not call an IFF too soon. I was BU in A in a game 2 years ago with runners on 1st and 2nd with a stiff wind blowing in. A high fly was hit to RCF, and I went out on it thinking it was going to be a trouble ball. To my dismay, the ball landed in the dirt, near where F4 had been standing before he went out. No IFF was called by myself or my partner on that day, because with the wind the way it was there were no ordinary effort fly balls.
