I had one this season off of an infield fly. Bases loaded, no outs (). Batter hits a high pop up and I announce "Infield fly if fair!" Ball lands untouched between two fielders, a couple of feet fair on the third base line and stays fair. Runners are casually milling about as I'm pointing fair saying "The batter is out.", defense scoops up the ball, tags R1 off of third base and throws to 2nd, getting R2 who is casually walking back to 2nd.

The offense had no idea what happened. The manager tried to protest two innings later.
