1. 3 strikes are called ("strikeout")
2. the ball hit by the batter is caught before hitting the ground ("flyout")
3. first baseman catches the ball before the batter runs there
4. the batter doesn't stand in the batter's box
5. the batter runs to a base that has already been tagged ("tagged" or "tag play")
6. the runner is tagged with the ball before reaching a base
7. the runner goes more than 3 feet out of the base line to avoid being tagged
8. the runner doesn't touch the bases (the runner is allowed to run past first but must touch second and third)
9. a fielder holding the ball touches a base, that is the only remaining base to which the runner can go, before the runner gets there
There are many ways that a batter can get out. * They can get a strike out. (The ball is thrown in the strike zone and the batter doesn't hit it 3 times) * They can get an out at first. (The batter hits the ball somewhere in the field and the fielder throws the ball to first before the batter lands her foot on the bag making a force out) * Be called out by umpire for leaving bag too early for a lead off.(If the batter gets a head start for the next bag they are going to before the ball leaves the pitchers hand then the batter is called out by the umpire)
To get someone out in softball the pitcher can strike them out. They can hit a pop-fly that is caught. The ball can beat the runner to first base by a defensive player tagging that base before the runner gets there. If the runner runs into a defensive player who is making the initial play on the ball, the runner is out. The runner could be tagged out before they touch the base.

I don't see how, or why you would want to. Most people use a softball.
In volleyball, volleyball is a soft ball. Same thing with softball. That's why people confuse softball with volleyball. Also, the guy who is answering your question sees girls playing volleyball when I hear the term "softball."
