You need a runner at 1st and another runner at 2nd (at least) to trigger the IFF Rule.

Just to pile on...you need at least a runner on first and a runner on second (or the bases loaded) with less than two out for the in field fly rule to be in effect.

Two, maybe three but never none nor one.

If Who's on first, and What's on second, but not if Who's on first without What on second or What on second and I Don't Know on third. Now if Who's on first, What's on second, and I Don't Know's on third, with one or none out, then it is a possible IFF situation.

On a side note, is Rick Reed always horrible behind the plate, or just today?

Shouldn't it be called the "Infielder's Fly Rule"?
