Best Answer

A fly ball is when the ball is hit high up in the air. A fly ball is almost always caught, so a line drive is the best thing to hit in softball.....Or its a sport where you use flies to push a ball into a goal.

If the ball is caught and there is less than 2 outs and it is deep enough for the runner to score it is called a sacrifice fly ball
