Harmbu, I understand the situation in the OP. When I coached, I would've come down the line and questioned the PU just because his poor mechanics on this play shows a sign of doubt.

I watched the video once, and my first thought was this play was totally unnecessary and I immediately thought I would eject the pitcher.

I think it's pretty gutsy... or stupid... for the kid to charge in yelling 'bunt'. A sharp line drive to the teeth would make that seem like a really dumb play.

Some of the guys I saw in softball only wore shin guards under the knee (like soccer shins), so I guess there wouldn't be any need for tights.

If I decide to go to B with R1 & R3, the...

2-2 is one time when I usually don't verbalize "ball" and "strike". But maybe I should. I have seen some batters who probably don't know if it is "2 Balls and 2 Strikes" or "2 Strikes and 2 Balls".
