What Is The Definition Of Flyout In Baseball?

1. A flyout is a term used in baseball to describe an out that is made after an outfielder catches a fly ball before it touches the ground. Pitchers who tend to throw pitches higher in the zone will produce more flyouts than pitchers who throw lower in the zone, especially low pitches to the outside corners.

This is different from a pop fly, which is usually caught in the infield.
