Batter out of box

[3appleshigh]

to write it off as well it's a sac bunt, therefore they are giving the out anyway, shows a distinct lack of understanding of the stratagy and the Ideas behind the SAC. The offense GAINS something by having a SAC, they move a runner into Scoring position. In a tie or close game this is a much more importants and crucial play than an attempted Bunt single.

When it happens it is obvious. And easily called, easier than a check swing, and it happens right infront of your face, in your vision. It will only happen on a pitch out or one that got away. As I said before in my instance the ONLY way the kid could have reached the pitch (with out laying out for it) was to be WAY out of the box. He left his FOOT print in the dirt about 6 in behind the point of home plate Toes facing the pitcher. Unless he wears a size 55E shoe, he's out of the box.
