If you realized you blew it and should have called it, then enforce the IF. The batter is out. What about the other runners? Since my failure to call IF put them in jeopardy and we had to reverse my call (or in this case, lack of a call) using rule 10.3, I'd put the runners back at 1st and 2nd.
And there is a casebook play to back it up. And if you erroneously call IF, you can use the God rule too.
