One of the worst calls I've ever seen.

To the letter of the rule it was the right call- BUT, the infielder drifted too far away from the infield for it to be a infield fly rule call- he was at least 200 feet from home plate. The 3 errors cost the Braves the game, not the bad IFR call though.

The real problem was that it IFR was called way too late. Needs to be called right after the ball is hit, but yes the 4th inning cost the Braves the game .
