Let me preface my comments by saying that I'm not an official scorekeeper. Just a fan and a LL coach.

Yes. Stats should read 2 for 4. I think you may be confusing a sacrifice with a fielder's choice. With a sacrifice, the batter is "giving himself up" for the team, therefore, no "at bat". Also, you only have a SAC bunt or SAC fly, not a SAC grounder. A fielder's choice is just that. The fielder CHOSE not to get you out. He had a better offer, so to speak, and got the lead runner. Had there been no one on base, you would have been out.
