👉 In baseball, a "restrike" refers to a strikeout or a foul ball that is not recorded in the count. In other words, it's when an opponent throws a pitch but the batter misses it, resulting in no hit and the pitch being called a strike. The term "restrike" can also refer to a situation where a player has been on the field for too long or has been having difficulty with their technique or mechanics, leading them to need a rest.
