Does the batter bunt down the First Base Line??? No Third Base

I said it before, these kids have a hard time Bunting.

I thought it was a bad call by the coach. Already had slower base runners. Bana played it very well, 3rd base crashed and SS covered third.

Let that big swing. Lucky with two outs, that kids singled and got in two runs to bail out his coach.

Shouldn’t be bunting at all. Stop giving them outs.

Correct.

Bunting is dumb.

It is rare that bunting is actually the correct thing to do, especially without speed on the bases and in the batter box. A hit or a loud out will either be the same or better than a bunt.

Bunt to lose.




Unless it's bottom of the 9th or later in a tie game with a runner on and 0 outs.

I've seen JJ bunt in the 4th inning , the 5th inning, the 6th inning in very close games. Are you going to tell me JJ doesn't know what he is doing?

Yes.

In this particular instance.

Obviously he's a good coach overall.
