Default Re: Baseball situation question - 2nd base nobody out vs 3rd base one

It does depend, to some extent on the batter (and the speed of the runner), but in general, do you think it is a good play to sac bunt with nobody out and a runner on second?

This isn't what I was referring to when I said it depends.

Unless you are very late in the game and tied(and sometimes down by 1), it is nearly always a horrible play sac bunting.

I disagree. Maybe the best way of framing the question is - In which situation are you more likely to score?

I think you are more likely to score from second with no outs, so even in the bottom of the ninth, down by one, bunting is a generally bad play.

I would bunt when it is tied, but not when down one.
