Tag ups at 1st are BU resp.; even if BU knows about the other out.

That's why I couldn't see how to get there.

So ... are we all just waiting for the Irish hammer to fall and show us where we're wrong?

Nope, I would rule it as an out.

8.7.F and 8.8.L make no exceptions if the player who batted the fly ball is ruled out prior to the catch.

Just poking around curious as to any question which may have been raised on such a play.

It's a good thing they don't since we call the BR out on the infield fly all the time before the catch.

Yes, which leads to all manner of confusion regarding tagging up (at least on the part of coaches).
