What does 2 for 4 mean in hitting in softball?

Answer 1

Ball was thrown from the number 2 position i.e catcher to the number 4 position second baseman. This is a normal scored put out for a bunted ball where the catcher fields the bunt and throws the runner out at first with the second baseman covering that position.

Answer 2

I think you might be referring to a 6-4-3 double play which is the ball hit to the short stop who feeds it to the second baseman (at second) who throws it onto first for the second out. A 2-4-6 double play would be catcher to second baseman to short stop and I really can't see any scenario where this would actually be a thing.

Answer 3

It means the batter had 4 at-bats and got 2 hits.
