Enough already. There is a clear demarcation or indicator: if the ball's arc is less than 23*, it cannot be an Infield Fly (OBR 9.01c subsection 2-a[i]).

Exactly. Are some of you saying that your fields do not have a laser level mounted at the appropriate height on the backstop to measure this? I mean, there are *some* fields here (mostly for very low level games or in the extremely poor counties) that don't have the auto-sensor that turns on the "infield fly rule" light, and in one field the light is poorly positioned (only about 1/2 the fielders can see it), but even the local park district field that's used only for pick-up games has the level.
