Can a baseball player catch an infield fly - where the ump has declared an infield fly - then throw to a base that a runner hasn't tagged up to yet and get a double play?

As soon as the ump calls the infield fly rule, the batter is out, but the runners can still advance at their own risk. To answer your question specifically, no, the fielder can't do that - that is the exact result that the infield fly rule was enacted to prevent! Usually when they call the infield fly rule, the baserunners go back to the bases relatively quickly, because the play is over.

What are the responsibilities of the pitcher on a baseball team?

The pitcher throws the baseball 60ft and 6in toward home plate, he may also try to pick off runners at the bases, and after a pitch is hit, in play, he then backs up the infield.


Why would a fielder try to catch a ball on an infield fly rule?

In the infield, a pop up has a natural tendency to move back towards the infield, happens down either line and in the area around the plate. So to compensate for the ball moving towards the infield, the catchers glove is positioned so it can move with the ball, rather than stabbing at it.

What kind of dirt is used in a Major League baseball infield?

The "dirt" we see isn't really what I would call dirt. A baseball infield is made up of a special mixture of sand, silt, and clay. (Silt is a natural material halfway between sand and clay as far as particle size is concerned.) There doesn't seem to be any one central source and depends more of the likings of the local groundskeepers. At Fenway Park, they mix in some ground up kitty-litter type stuff to give the infield "dirt" a redder color. Our local AA minor league park has artificial "dirt" made up of ground up automobile tires. Low maintenance and good drainage were what they were looking for around here!


What is the resolution of the story infield hit?

"Infield Hit" is a short story by Jack Kerouac that explores themes of friendship, competition, and the passage of time. The resolution of the story comes with the realization that relationships and memories can be fleeting, as the protagonist reflects on his past experiences with his friend and the game of baseball. Ultimately, the story leaves the reader with a sense of nostalgia and the bittersweet feelings that come with growing up.


Do you have to tag on the infield rule?

If, (while the infield fly rule is in effect), the ball is caught, the runners must tag up. If the ball is dropped or falls to the ground untouched, the runners may advance at their own risk.Clarification:The infield fly rule was enacted to prevent teams from getting an easy double or triple play by letting a popup in the infield drop. An infield fly is just like any other fly ball, with the exception that the batter is immediately out, with results in the runners not being required to advance in the even that the ball is not caught
