As stated on an infield fly where the ball lands in the outfield, just past the infield track has no bearing on deciding whether it is a infield fly or not.
In a case where the "loop" up not a line drive could be in shallow outfield or deep infield a infield fly could be signaled and called. Right pointer finger extended above the head pointing skyward. Verbally announcing firmly Infield fly. Plate umpire has the first call of fly balls of that nature.
Now if the infielder had to go through any extra excessive out of the ordinary positioning to make the catch then it should not be called an Infield fly.
