Not quite sure if you're asking if that is called a sacrifice or if you're asking how it's done?
If you're asking if it is a sacrifice, then yes, that is a sacrifice fly.
If you're asking how it's done? I can tell you the fielder must catch the ball before the runner on third can take his foot off of the bag, otherwise he has to go back to third (tag up) then try to score.
Sacrifice fly
How do you compare softball pitching speed to baseball pitching sped?
Speed is based on distance traveled in a given amount of time. Baseball uses a distance of 60 feet 6 inches from the pitching rubber to home where as softball is 43 feet. A ball that would cover 43 feet in 1/2 a second is traveling just over 58 mph while a ball covering 60 feet 6 inches in the same time is traveling 82.5 mph. You need to know 2 of the following 3 ; distance, speed, or time. If you know distance and time then the formula is speed=distance/time.
If you know the speed and distance then use time=distance/speed, get that number then use previous formula and change distance to get comparison.

Hope this helps
