a deliberate pitch thrown by the pitcher far outside the strike zone in baseball
A pitchout in baseball or softball is a pitch thrown intentionally outside the strike zone, usually when the defense expects the runner on base to try to steal the next base. The pitcher throws the ball wide, so the catcher has a better chance to catch it and throw it to the base the runner is trying to reach. A pitchout is not aimed at getting the batter out but instead focuses on stopping the runner from advancing. It is a strategy used by the defense to prevent stolen bases.
