It means "out"
t's when the batter has two strikes. I know there are several types of "outs", but unfortunately I'm not that acquainted with baseball.
Si el "toque de sacrificio" o "toquecito" sale de la zona de juego cuando la cuenta del bateador lleva dos strikes este será tomado como un out ("ponche").

But what is a strikeout?
So I looked it up in my collins dictionary which said "In baseball, if a pitcher strikes out a batter or if a batter strikes out, the batter fails to hit three balls thrown properly by the pitcher, and is out"
" En beísbol si un lanzador "strikes out" a un bateador o si un bateador "strikes out", el bateador falla en pegar o dar a tres bolas lanzadas correctamente por el lanzador y queda fuera (es eliminado).
