What is Out (baseball)?
An '''out''' in [[baseball]] happens to the [[batter(baseball)|batter]] or his teammates on the field in a game. When a player is out, they leave the field, and when there are 3 outs, the other team goes up to bat. One way to get an out is if a [[baseball (ball)|baseball]] is caught while in the [[air]] and before it touches the [[ground]] after being hit by the batter. Another way is to strike out. To strike out you have to either miss the ball or not swing at good pitches three times while batting. [[Tag out]]<nowiki/>s and [[force out]]<nowiki/>s are the other main ways players get out. == Related pages == * [[Out (cricket)]] == References == {{Reflist}} {{sport-stub}} [[Category:Baseball rules]]
