Infield Fly question

No outs. Runners on 1b and 2b. Infield fly rule in effect. Infield fly hit to second baseman. Runners leave their respective bases.
Umpire calls infield fly, batter is out. Do the runners have to tag up to advance? I'm betting they don't but wanted to verify.

If the fly ball is caught the runners must tag up. If it is not caught they don't have to.

Except for the fact that the batter is out, an "infield fly" is no different than any other fly ball.
