Talk:run out

The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.

---

1. (intransitive) To expire, to come to an end.
2. (Should we delete⁽⁺⁾ this sense?) (intransitive) Of a legal right, to expire, to terminate.

I see no semantic distinction of any kind between theses senses. DCDuring TALK 11:55, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

No difference. The translations were for sense 2 (To expire, to come to an end) but the translation gloss matched the "legal", changed the translation gloss to match sense 2, added Russian. Delete sense. --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 11:42, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Baseball sense

Webster 1913 has a baseball sense: "To put out while running between two bases." This might be dated, and it might be similar to the cricket sense we have already. Equinox ◑ 19:35, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
