Re: Baseball Rules Question: You make the call
The umps need to call the infield fly rule for it to be in effect. If it is in effect, the runner from first is responsibly for himself, and the batter was out before the ball comes down. Situations like this are the reason the rule was invented.
If the infield fly wasn't called, it's a double play. An incredibly cheesy one, but a DP nonetheless.
