Have a question. Thanks in advance for any response!
Batter shows bunt, does not remove bat from strike zone, does not offer at the ball. In Dixie Youth or Dixie Boys, is this a strike?

This is not a strike in Dixie youth unless the umpires deems the batter offered at the pitch. No movement would not constitute an attempt to offer at the pitch. Call this pitch were it is as a ball or a strike due to location not because the batter had squared to bunt. Dixie youth has a few safety and pitching rules for itself but refers to OBR in all other suituations.
