Wikipedia
base runner
In baseball, base running is the act of running from base to base, performed by members of the team at bat. Base running is a tactical part of the game with the goal of eventually reaching home base (home plate) to score a run. Batters strive to become base runners, and to enable existing base runners to move to a subsequent base or to score. In statistics, the number of baserunners (for example those allowed by a pitcher) is denoted by the abbreviation BR.

base runner
In baseball or softball, a base runner is a player who has safely reached base and is attempting to advance to subsequent bases (second, third, and home plate) in sequence. This typically happens after they have hit the ball into fair territory, been assigned to a base via a base on balls (or "walk"), or got on base in other ways such as being hit by the pitch or a fielder's error. This player is aiming to ultimately reach the home plate to score a run.
