👉 In baseball, a strikeout is an action that results in the batter being removed from play due to the pitcher throwing a pitch that does not produce any work on the batters' plate. This can happen when the batter swings and misses a pitch or when the pitcher throws a ball too far away from the batter's hand. The term "strikeout" is often used to refer to this action, as it indicates that the batter has been effectively removed from the game by the opposing team.
