Infield fly ruling and double play question explained
The batsman is out when the umpire rules an infield fly but the ball was not dead. If the ball is live, a double play can be completed as the second baseman throws to the base before the runner returns. Runs on the play do not count if the batsman fails to touch first base, making the third out on that error.
