ASA - clarification
On a bunt attempt, does the batter have to pull the bat back in order for a strike to not be called? That is, if the batter leaves the bat in the strike zone, he/she is not considered to have taken the pitch and it is considered a bunt attempt.
Does this rule differ in PONY? I don't have a rule book handy as I'm at work (and should be working....) but I'm curious.
Thanks!
