What does PUTOUT mean in Scrabble?
noun
North American
In baseball, a play in which a fielder causes a batter or base runner to be ruled out, credited separately from a strikeout.
A putout goes into the box score next to whichever defender actually ends the hitter's turn or removes someone already on the bases, whether that happens by touching a bag, applying a tag, or catching a ball in the air. One swing can produce more than one such entry at once, as in a double play, and the season total is one of the oldest defensive numbers kept for any position player. A pitcher who retires a hitter directly has that at-bat scored on its own, and it does not add to anyone's putout tally.
