Reply to "Bunting Alive and Well"

I think people tend to lump all bunts together when they aren’t all the same. A sacrifice bunt is one thing, but a bunt to try to get on is something else entirely. The former is as its name implies, a sacrifice of the batter, or giving up an out to move a runner(s) up a base. The latter is something quite different as it’s usually tried by players with a lot of speed or when the batter sees the F5 is playing behind the base or the pitcher does something that looks like he’d be vulnerable to the bunt.
