Had this happen to another umpire crew this past weekend.
What would you do?
Bottom of 7th and home team down by one run. Runner on 2nd base with one out. Batter hits a high pop fly to the short stop. Umpire calls "infield fly, batter out!" Batted ball is not caught. Batter, assuming he is out doesn't run but does not enter dugout. Ball is returned to the pitcher. Umpires realize their mistake and get together to talk.
What would you do in this situation? I'll tell you what happened later.
