Chuck - the edge of the grass will vary by many feet from field to field. What is consistant is the 60' baselines and the normal range of infielders inf front of and behind those lines.

You also have to consider the position and motion of the infielders. Assume bases are loaded and all infielders are in, and F4 charges on a fake bunt. B4 tries a slap hit and pops the ball up near the normal F4 position. That ball can easily fall on the skin, but it cannot be caught by ordinary effort because no infielders can get there.

Conversely, a towering fly ball that F6 is camped under 10' on the grass can still be a IFF.
