Pierre lancée avec l'intention de sortir une pierre adverse de la maison mais qui échoue à le faire.

OBS

La sortie ratée est effectuée avec une «pierre ratée», mais on peut également dire de la pierre qui devait être sortie qu'elle est ratée, dans le sens qu'on l'a ratée (elle n'a pas été touchée), qu'elle l'a échappé belle.
