fly ball
In baseball, a fly ball is a type of ball hit into the air, often high above the field, with the intention or potential to travel a significant distance. It is typically caught by a fielder in the outfield. If caught, it can result in an out for the batter. If it is not caught and lands within the field boundaries, it can result in a hit for the batter. If the fly ball goes over the outfield fence in fair territory, it counts as a home run.
