Bunt


 

A bunt is a special type of offensive technique in baseball or fastpitch softball. In a bunt play, the batter loosely holds the bat in front of the plate and intentionally taps the ball into play.

Special rules involving bunts

There is one special rule involving bunting. When there are two strikes and the batter bunts the ball into foul territory, it is considered a strikeout, and the batter is retired. This rule only applies on true bunts, not on any bunt-like contacts that might occur during a full swing or check-swing.
