@dylf14 The batter is still out and the baserunners can advance without tagging up.
-
@Doinkatron Nothing happens, you have to cross home plate to score.
-
@JPoftheKeys you're right, rules state with less than two out a runner at first and second or a runner at first second or third, when i watched this i was thinking same thing
-
@JPoftheKeys Why? If there are runners at 1st and 3rd and less than 2 outs, the 2nd baseman could intentionally drop a fly ball, tag 2nd and throw to 1st for the double play. The infield fly rule prevents this. How is the video wrong?

@JPoftheKeys Hey, I'm in the UK and Iv'e just got into baseball. Seeing your an umpire can you tell me about scoring? What happens if a player makes it to first only and then to second? Do they still get anything or can you only score 1 or half.
Thanks!

the batter is out and the runners do not have 2 advance
-
lol.. you can't even spell "soccer"..
so instead... you said socker
-
If the infielder drops the ball on purpose or on accident and the "Infield Fly" rule is in effect then the batter turned to runner is out instantly and the runners on 1st and 2nd or 1st, 2nd, and 3rd may advance at their own risk.

I'm a certified umpire. The fellow in the video IS WRONG when he is talking about the base runners being located at first and second, but then he mentions runners occupying only first and third. For the infield fly rule to be in effect a runner must also occupy second base if there is a runner already at third with less than two outs..

This video is completely wrong. In the MLB Rule book it states: "An INFIELD FLY is a fair fly ball (not including a line drive nor an attempted bunt)
which can be caught by an infielder with ordinary effort, when first and second, or first,
second and third bases are occupied, before two are out. The pitcher, catcher and any
outfielder who stations himself in the infield on the play shall be considered infielders for the
purpose of this rule." That is what it states.
