If a runner advances after failing to tag up, the infielder immediately calls for the ball, touches the base, and tells the umpire which runner failed to tag. The ball does not have to go to the pitcher. If the ball goes out of play or if time is called, then it must go to the pitcher, who steps on and then off the rubber and throws to the infielder manning the missed base.
