full count
In baseball a full count is when the batter has 3 balls and 2 strikes. If another ball is thrown without the batter swinging, its a walk (batter automatically gets to 1st base). If another strike is thrown and the batter swings and misses or doesn't swing and the ball is in the strike zone, thats strike 3 and the batter is out. If a foul is hit and not caught the batter continues. The batter could hit as many foul balls and not be out if the ball is not caught. A foul counts as a strike except on the third strike.
