What is a "line drive"?
A line drive in baseball or softball is a hit that travels quickly and straight through the air, usually at a low angle. The ball is hit hard and in a direct path, making it difficult for fielders to catch. A line drive can be a good way to get on base because of its speed and precision. If the ball is caught by a fielder before it hits the ground, it counts as an out, but if it lands in the field, it may result in a hit or possibly even an extra base.
Example
The outfielder made a diving catch to snag the line drive.
The line drive ricocheted off the pitcher 's glove and into center field.
The batter 's line drive sailed over the shortstop 's head for a base hit.
