For a start, here is a list of the ten ways to get out in cricket:
Bowled
Caught
LBW (leg before wicket)
Run out
Stumped
Retired
Hit the ball twice
Hit wicket
Obstructing the field
Timed out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dismissal_(cricket)
I cannot find such a succinct list for baseball, as there seem to be so many variants!
