>An 'out' in baseball. Has to be a nouned verb.
Hang on a minute, shanks. It's only a nouned verb if it's come from the verb 'to out'. Given that it's come from the expression 'to go out' or 'to get out', I'd say it's a nouned adverb (or do I mean preposition? Help me please someone!).
I suppose 'to out' is a verb with a different sense. Did it originate as a verbed adverb/preposition?
