if it's IFF situation, and umpires ring out the IFF, it's rung, and can't be unrung.
I read about no phantom IFF. OP got a fielder dropping the ball after umpires rung the IFF bell, and tried to unring that bell after the fielder dropped the ball. where is this phantom?

Not only CAN it be unrung, but you are REQUIRED to unring it. What, exactly, are you calling the batter out for? What rule do you use to justify you incorrectly and in contradiction to the rules calling him out and leaving him out?
Example - runner stealing 2nd on ball 4 - you don't see the ball call and yell, "OUT!" Everyone else knows it was a walk, and runner stays on 2nd. What do you do? "Sorry coach - I called her out. I can't unring that. She's out."
