fielder's choice
Out selection play
A fielder's choice is a baseball play in which a fielder handles a batted ball and attempts to put out a baserunner other than the batter, allowing the batter to reach first base.
The batter is not credited with a hit.
He reached on a fielder's choice when the shortstop threw to second.
