PWL,

So you think the two fielders can just bat the ball back and forth to each other with their gloves, with nobody catching the fly ball over foul territory, all the way in towards the infield, in order to keep runners from advancing on a sacrifice fly after the ball was touched? If you say "yes, that's what I mean" then you is a fool, as they used to say on my block.

Admit that your good friend Jim Evans meant that the runners could advance on a caught foul fly, but did not mean the runners had to wait until the ball was caught to start running. The very idea is ludicrous. Even Ludacris thinks it is ludicrous. I talked to him this afternoon.
