				Technical Madness .
			 
 
			
			While reading through definitions case plays etc I came upon this simple play also while teaching .2 strikes on the batter who bunts the ball and it goes foul .
 We have an out , right ?
 Newbie asks definition of a bunt
 A batted ball not swung at , but intentionallymet with the bat and tapped slowly within the infield .
 Newbie "Wheres the infield "
 "Portion of the field in fair territory that includes areas normally covered by infielders "
 Newbie "So technically if a bunted ball goes foul it is no longer a bunt and therefore the batter shouldnt be out "
 Im gonna have trouble with this Newbie .
 These are ISF rules , dont know your definitions for ASA but from past experiences ASA seems to be more exact and has ironed out a lot of discrepancies
