Runner on 2nd, 1 out. Batter hits a deep fly ball to right field to the track. Runner tags and is super fast and takes 2 bases and scores. There was no error on the play but no urgency either as it caught the defense completely by surprise that she came hard around 3rd. Is this a sac fly?

Yes, as long as a run scores, it's a sacrifice fly. It's happened in MLB in cases where a deep fly ball causes the OF to catch the ball then crash into the wall and fall down. The runner scored from 2B, so the batter gets the RBI.

Thank you! The kid on second is a very elite player than runs just over a 2.6 home to first and she took off for third on the tag with a full head of steam and when the coach noticed them not paying attention he sent her on and she never slowed down.

sounds like a mental error just like the other thread
