잡히다 is 잡다 turned back on you — being caught — and in these lines it is almost always the compound 따라잡히다, having your lead wiped out. Several are live score captions: [어느새 6:6까지 따라잡힌 상황!], [현재 스코어 8:8 결국 따라잡힌 점수], [한 방에 따라잡힘]. The rest are commentary on a country losing its edge: 한국은 세계 1위 기술력이었지만 따라잡혀왔고, 일본이 이기고 다 따라잡힌 거죠. 따라잡다 is you catching up; 따라잡히다 is being caught.
