You've never flipped a ball from your glove to your hand? You're using Baseball Digest as a rules source?

I know it bugs y'all to have sources like BD quoted, but I only used it to cite what a veteran MLB umpire had to say about it. That doesn't seem too terribly out of line. |

As regards to flip tosses from the glove, sure, you see it all the time. Check out Todd Helton's 40 foot jai alai toss last night ( it went 3 feet over the leaping catcher's glove and cost an additional run. But these are usually on grounders. I don't recall ever seeing an infielder snare a line drive and then do a direct glove flip to a base. If the receiving fielder muffed it and the ball ended up on the ground, an OOO might have cause to rule "no catch" especially if the flip toss was way off the mark.
