In Baseball, a dead ball occurs when the ball is no longer in play. This can happen for various reasons, such as a foul ball, interference, or the ball hitting an object outside the field of play. When a dead ball is called, the play stops and any baserunners must return to their original base. The specific rules and consequences associated with a dead ball can vary depending on the situation, but generally, the umpire will make a ruling based on the circumstances.
