tagged off
Caught between bases
Tagged off describes being touched by another player to complete an action in a game—either getting out in tag or baseball, or being released to take your turn in a relay race.
In baseball specifically, a runner is tagged off when touched with the ball while off base: He was tagged off trying to steal second.
