Of COURSE they initially had a lead. Everyone initially has a lead at TOP. It's normal and done on every pitch. The tag-up need/lack-of-need isn't determined until the pitch is hit.

And they went back when it was called an IFF didn't they - just as I said - tag up on an IFF.

Good Lord, you really aren't pretending are you? You really don't understand the difference betweem taking a lead on the hit and then tagging up and tagging up immediately on the hit. You really don't understand that only in a foul fly situation do runners have no reason to be any where but on the bag ready to run. You really don't understand that on an IFF there is the possibility of not needing to tag up and runners can and do remain off the bag until the catch. You really aren't pretending are you?

Wow.
