You just have to do the best you can, but don't take your eye off that ball until the fielder demonstates firm and secure possession and volentary release. Then check for tag ups....If you have any doubt whether the runner tagged up...he tagged up!

Agree with most but if you have a trouble fly ball to center field side with F9, for one of any instances, the BU has tag and catch? We don't play it like that. BU will call off PU, roll out and PU has tag and advance. YMMV
