A loud out is a baseball term for a hard hit ball that should be a base hit, but instead is hit directly to a fielder who fields the ball for an out.


Why name this blog "Loud Outs"?  Because "Warning Track Power" was taken I guess.


When a player is hitting loud outs, typically, he is struggling and seems to be very unlucky and close to breaking through.


I've had lots of loud outs the last few years, and I hope I'm about to break through.  Hence the name.
