I'm not a big baseball fan so this may be a stupid question but how in the hell did that official think that was anywhere near the infield? That ball landed at least 25 feet into the outfield. If my understanding of the rules is correct, than I can see why the fans were so pissed

It doesn't have to be in the infield. Its a judgment call if the official immediately judges that an infielder can make a routine play on a fly ball then it is ruled as a infield fly. The problem is that the official used poor judgement and he used it indecisively. The biggest problem is that it wasn't immediately called.
