What's this?

Metal bats weren't developed with bunting in mind

I bet it's difficult to dampen the pitch with that hard ofv a surface. You have to pull back a tad to deaden the ball's Newtonian reaction. It's a lost art. We used to bunt several times at the end of our batting practice turn, and run it out to first base.
FUNDAMENTALS!

Move him to 3rd and hope for a fly out on the next ball (or a hit) or swing -- Late 80s Hokie 05/16/2021 09:49AM

The problem was that we can't execute a bunt -- rtp_hokie67 05/16/2021 11:25AM

Yeah, I can see that argument as well, and I'm sure there's an odds book -- Late 80s Hokie 05/16/2021 1:18PM
