If you're on the losing side of the scoreboard, the teams job is to do what it has to do to get baserunners and try to start a rally to try and win the game. In fact, what is bush is for teams to sit back and give up just because they're losing or not do what gives them the best opportunity to get a baserunner. If a defense is playing back and you need a baserunner and your best bunter and fastest player drops on down and gets on, then he did his job. There is no rule that says you can't bunt just because a pitcher is throwing a no-hitter.
