IF Situation

At that point I had already called it and after the non-catch both runners on base advanced and I had runners on all three bases.

In this case, would you stick to your call of IF and send the BR to the dugout on the out (Which I did) or would you consider waving it off or even asking your partner? My thinking is since I made the call and everyone heard me make it then it is like calling a foul ball which can't be taken back once declared.

At that point I had already called it and after the non-catch both runners on base advanced and I had runners on all three bases.

If you invoked the Infield Fly Rule, how did THREE RUNNERS end up on base?

He meant temporarily, reread the OP, "stick to your call of IF and send the BR to the dugout on the out (Which I did) " phrase

have to run but this play is covered in the ASA casebook. If you got with partner and decided that it was not ordinary effort, you can correct this. Of course my asa casebook is 2002-2003.

suggest all get ASA casebook. Then you can give answers like Irishmafia.
