Is there a specific height where the infield fly rule is in effect? I'm curious as to the subjectivity of the umpire making a call.

There is no height requirement, it must be a fly/pop fly and cannot be a bunt. One philosophy that many umpires use is call it to protect the offense. Calling it keeps the defense from being able to turn cheap, force play, double or even triple plays.
