It doesn't matter where the ball is hit as long as an INFIELDER can "camp" under it.

Yeah Braves fans should be ashamed of themselves.

I used to be an umpire. That was definitely the right call. For it to be an infield fly, an infielder must be able to catch the ball without exhaustive effort. The shortstop easily could have caught that ball. Correct call.

Cardinal Nation probably would've reacted on the umpire's "icing the pitcher" had the game been held at Busch Stadium...

I don't like the Braves, but how on EARTH was that an out?!?!?! That was a fair ball.

Are you serious? It was called an INFIELD fly rule. and if u know anything, that was clearly in the OUTFIELD by far.

What a sad ending for Chipper's career. Horrible call, not the best way to show southern hospitality either. They beat themselves before this play.
In any event, I'll always be chopping for the Bravos. Just wasn't our day. At least it will be memorable!
