Explanation

The answer is not necessarily zero fouls for an out in baseball. In normal circumstances, a foul ball itself does not result in an out. In fact, a batter can hit multiple foul balls in a single at-bat without being declared out. However, there are specific situations where a foul ball can result in an out. For example: 1. Foul with two strikes: If a batter hits a foul ball with two strikes, it is considered a strikeout, resulting in an out. 2. Foul caught by a fielder: If a fielder catches a foul ball, regardless of the number of strikes or balls, it is considered an out. So, while fouls typically do not count as outs, there are cases where a foul ball can lead to an out in baseball.
