About Strikeouts

Strikeouts are outs recorded by the pitcher or team's pitchers when the player at bat accumulates 3 strikes before putting the ball in play, is walked, or is hit by a pitch. Strikes are accumulated by swinging and missing a pitch, not swinging at a pitch in the strike zone, or by hitting a foul ball. Foul ball strikes however are not counted as a third strike unless the foul results from a bunt or is a foul tip caught by the catcher. Generally, for Strikeouts, higher is better. (Source)
