On Defense

There are many ways that the team on defense can get an offensive player out. Four common ways are
Strikeouts (hitter misses three pitches)
Force outs (when, after the ball is hit, the defensive player with the ball reaches a base before the runner)
Fly outs (when a player hits the ball in the air and its caught by a defensive player before the ball hits the ground)
Tag outs (when a runner is touched with the ball, or a glove with the ball in it)
