Tag out
In baseball and softball, a tag out, sometimes just called a tag, is a play in which a baserunner is out because a fielder touches him with the ball or with the hand or glove holding the ball, while the ball is live and the runner is in jeopardy of being put out – usually when he is not touching a base.

Tag out
In baseball, a tag out, sometimes just called a tag, is a play in which a baserunner is out because he is touched by the fielder's hand or glove holding a live ball while the runner is advancing. In baseball, a runner must sometimes advance to the next base because a batter, advancing to first, forces that runner to advance ahead of him to the next base. Two runners are not allowed on one base at one time, so a batter can, in effect, bumper-car a runner forward. Such a runner is spoken of as having been forced to the next base. A defensive play against that runner is called a force play and, if successful, a force out. In force plays, the way a fielder gets a runner out is by, with the ball in his hand, simply touching or stepping on the targeted base before the runner does. A batter can also advance to the next base because he chooses to. For example, suppose, with a runner on first, the batter hits a single into the outfield. As the batter runs to first, the runner on first is forced to advance ahead of him to second. However, that runner can then choose to run past second and on to third.

tag out
In tag-team sporting events participants compete in teams (typically teams of 2), but only one team member competes at a time. When that player wants their teammate to take their place - because they are tired or for strategic reasons - they will touch, or ‘tag’, their teammate. When a player does this they are said to ‘tag out’.
Wrestler Triple Thunder was so outmatched he had to tag out just 2 minutes into the match.
