Rule 1, Sec. 11
BUNT: A bunt is a fair ball in which the batter does not take a full
swing at the ball but holds the bat in such a manner in the path of the
ball to tap the ball slowly to the infield. EFFECT: The ball is dead,
the batter is out, and baserunners may not advance.  |
If you are reading the Slowpitch Rules, yes. It has been years since I willingly looked at an NSA rulebook, but I seem to recall the format is all slowpitch, then fastpitch as exceptions.
No version of slowpitch that I know about allows bunting.
