Assist

What is assist in baseball?

Does fly ball mean the absence of assist records?

The assist is an award for any player who touches the ball before its teammate records the putout. They are typical when one fielder throws it to another fielder. Assists improve the player’s statistics after the unintentional contact. This event happens on the line drive that strikes the pitcher before caroming to the shortstop. The ball outs on the throw to the first base with an assist record to both players.

The assists are awarded during most ground-ball outs as they need passing actions between the defenders. Fly ball out assists are typical when the runner advances the ball and the in- or outfielder doubles it off. Any player has the right to one assist recorded during the rundown even if it touches the shield twice and more times. The pitchers can’t add assists in case of strikeout.
