Yep,
Major Edit
Rather than be silly and argumentative I changed this post to read:
1) Can an infield fly be "uncalled"? Can my partner say: "No it is not high enough?"
Note: I do not mean when an umpire calls an infield fly in error because he either is mistaken in outs or in the placement of the runners,
2) What is the timing for the umpire to call infield fly? Every single camp, clinic, classic, academy or umpire school all say to call the infield fly when the ball reaches the apex of flight.
I really hope no one disagrees with this universal mechanic.
So,
Play Situation:
R1 and R2 with less than two out.
Infield and outfield are playing in a normal defensive set.
The day's weather is lightly overcast with little to no wind.
The Batter hits a high pop-up directly at F4.
As a well trained umpire crew you all wait until the ball reaches its highest point and two of the crew, including you the PU, correctly call "Infield Fly if Fair!"
The ball comes down and the ball is dropped by, OH NO, the Right Fielder who has run into the infield!
Please make your ruling.
I remain,
"The Notorious Thread Deleter"
