a base hit that allows the batter to reach base safely without being put out by the defense
What is a "safety"?
A safety in baseball or softball happens when a player successfully reaches a base without being out. This can occur when a batter hits the ball and runs to a base, or if a runner is already on a base and avoids getting tagged by the other team. Being safe means the player is still in the game and can try to move to the next base or score a point. It is an important part of the game, as staying safe on the bases keeps the team’s chance of scoring alive.

What is a "safety"?
A safety in football is when the team with the ball is tackled in their own end zone, or makes a mistake there, like committing a penalty. When this happens, the other team scores two points. After the safety, the team that was scored on has to kick the ball to the other team. This can happen when a player is forced into their end zone while holding the ball or when the quarterback is stopped there. A safety is important because it gives points to the other team and also gives them the ball.
