The "Infield fly rule"! Yay.
I would imagine there are a few fellow Celtic fans who are also baseball fans in here to help me out.
This rule kinda makes sense, but there are still a few details missing for me. As I understand it, with the help of Google, a batter is out if the umpire calls "pop fly" or whatever. So then the defense does not have to catch the ball? The batter is out regardless? I guess it is in good spirit to catch the fly ball anyway but they could not, and no error will be charged?
Cheers!
