I called three 16U fall games yesterday. Had two IFs called. They were routine IF situations, so no controversy there, but in the second one there was some interesting followup play.

Bases loaded, 1 out, routine infield pop up. I call the IF. All runners had taken a small lead. The catch is dropped, R1 and R2 both return to base, but R3 decides to run to 2nd, resulting in R1 on 3rd, R2 and R3 both on 2nd. Coach is yelling at his F6 to just walk the ball back to 2nd. F6 instead thrown to F4, who muffs the catch - ball goes into CF. R1 scores, R2 advances to 3rd, and R1 stays at 2nd. Coach then yells for his team to appeal R3 for leaving 1B early. So, ball is still live & the ball is thrown to F3 at 1st. I signal safe. Coach yells, "She left early, Blue. She can't leave early on an infield fly."

Did I say this was 16U?
