FRAPPE COURS [1 record]

Record 1 2011-08-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Baseball and Softball
DEF

An offensive play in which one or more runners advance toward the next base during the pitcher's delivery, while the batter tries to get a hit, preferably on the ground so that the runner(s) is not caught off.

OBS

The consulted sources do not distinguish clearly between the nominal form "hit-and-run" and the verbal form, a command, "hit and run!".

French

Domaine(s)
  • Baseball et softball
DEF

Tactique offensive où le coureur au premier but simule une tentative de vol de but pendant que le frappeur cherche à placer la balle en lieu sûr derrière le coureur.

OBS

Les sources consultées devraient davantage distinguer entre la forme nominale «frappe-et-court» ou «court-et-frappe», et la forme verbale, un impératif, «frappe et cours!». Comme il s'agit d'un jeu, on tend à oublier la distinction de forme dans les graphies.
