Infield Fly

I am BU, bases loaded, no outs, batter pops one high around home area, I point up to let my partner know, he says " Infield fly batter out" the ball drops and hits the foul line,chalk puffs (20' up the line) then rolls foul and stops at the fence. Pitcher picks up ball, PU says batter is still out. Off.players,mgr,coaches,
fans go crazy.Game continues. I remember reading that it should be called
"Infield Fly,If Fair" In what I described above, wouldn't this be a foul ball and
not batter out? I talked after the game with my partner and he told me
to read the book, and once i have been doing this as long as him I may then
understand it all. Whats the right call? Nobody touched the ball until the
Pitcher picked it up. 13&14 boys
