MLB Best Bunts

[@ARod-br2ui]

One of the prettiest plays in baseball.

[@ethanortiz7851]

down the line bunts are Incredible

[@omieg89]

Good laid bunts are one of the most exciting plays in baseball.

[@MakeUDawn]

With me a perfect bunt is more beautiful than a homerun.

[@omieg89]

Home runs are cool but bunts, singles turned to doubles, and triples are all more exciting in my opinion.

[@mattg6390]

You got to love a well placed bunt for a hit! They are far too rare these days

Vin Scully: Fair ball, fair ball, fair ball…

[@Grateful2Exist]

The catcher had two chances to pick the ball up while it was in foul territory. Smh

[@billygowhoop]

I love seeing someone lay down a nice bunt, especially when it's to the open side of the field during a shift. It drives me nuts seeing guys try to beat the shift when no one is standing anywhere near third base.

[@greatdanepain5985]

When they are looking to see if the bunt is fair the runner can keep on running around the bases

[@samwalko]

Yes, but it's a bad idea, because then a fielder can just pick it up and throw rather than track it down, pick it up, and throw.

[@LTDANMAN44]

i can hear clu haywood now. "YOU REALLY KNOCKED THE CRAP OUTTA THAT"

[@tr0llaccount]

Hope to see more of this if the shift trend continues.

[@uotamickey4970]

In Japan league, The ball bunted was over fence. Crazy homerun.

[@miguelquazar883]

I remember being the most disruptive player when it came to bunting. What fun it was. It helps to be quick on your feet.

[@ja8898]

Ah. The fundamentals. - Hank Hill

[@Hunter10045NEW]

1:30 is very poor played from the catcher. He should have grabbed the ball when it was foul 3-4 times.

[@renardmigrant]

As far as I can tell, the whole ball never crossed the whole of the line. Even it did, human reaction times are non-zero and if it rolls back one millimetre in the time it takes the signal to go from the brain to the hand that might be enough to make it a fair ball. Plus the umpire may call it fair in any case.

[@joedub5486]

I love that click sound of the ball coming off the bat

[@thatboykaden8128]

@4:19 he clapped the baseball. Fantastic.

[@Jianzhen_Mohandas]

This is the baseball! Of course, homerun is great but also small play makes a great game.

[@jasonglessner1932]

I love how the thumbnail shows that the batter should be called out. His foot is out of the batters box

[@canedewey756]

3rd baseline bunts always win, I had the highest average for over half a season because of bunts, it's colt league,everyone was too scared to do them when signaled and would have to run laps the next day at practice, I was fat and hated running.

[@viktorull]

0:15 I didn't understand this play, why the 3rd base didn't catch the ball and threw to the man on the 1st base to try eliminate the batter??

[@doughendricks7332]

The Kung Fu Panda just stared at the ball.

[@flavor2903]

"never bunt" -kent murphy

[@maasz]

These bunts must be common in baseball

[@rwbteam7468]

Where the hell is Jon Lester's Bunt for the Chicago Cubs?

[@Hollister02]

LegendaryMC Dude01 that's what I was thinking

[@jassohouse1]

LegendaryMC Dude01 right

[@rjaeenriquez9007]

0:15 can someone explain why he didn't pick it up? Curious to know, thanks

[@gelato101]

If it rolled over the line, he would have picked it up and it would have been a foul ball

[@zacharyw1558]

he's waiting for the ball to roll over the line, becasue if it does, it would be counted as a foul ball and the runner needs to go back to batting box.

[@raygordonteacheschess5501]

In a college intramural softball league I was 4-for-4 on bunts.

[@joe3009]

This needs to come back.

[@CoreyF84]

Cough Lester walk off bunt against the Mariners Cough Cough.

[@TheChinchilla15]

Bad play by catcher at 1:35 not to pick it up while it was foul

[@pillarsofserpents]

update this with John Hicks of Detroit, from last season. walk-off.

[@MusicHead480]

haha i love your videos

[@power1748]

YOU DIDN't show the Jon Lester bunt against the Mariners

[@rwahl125]

Power 17 I was just gonna say something lol

[@hrothenberg21]

I was about to comment that before I scrolled down and saw yours!

[@elismerpichardo3994]

amazing

[@whowho8470]

What about Gregor Blanco's bunt for the Giants during 2012 World Series?

[@greg0uk]

Why weren’t they picking the ball up when it was running along the line? I’m from the UK so don’t really understand. Thanks

[@mattg6390]

They were hoping that it would roll foul because they knew they weren't going to be able to throw him out at first. If the ball is picked up to the left of the line (or the right if it's on the first base side), it counts as a strike instead of a hit

[@BrockNelson]

True story: In 8th or 9th grade I was lead off hitter for my team. 9 games in a row I started the game with a bunt single. 🤌🏼

[@buttfartstew4789]

Lol, the teams you played then must not watch film like my team does

[@BrockNelson]

@@buttfartstew4789 this was in 2008ish!

[@canedewey756]

I use to bat 2nd and was frequently signaled to bunt, I had the highest average for over half a season because I was always getting on base from line drive, 3rd baseline hunts, I never hit a home run though!

[@miguelquazar883]

Nothing funner than bunting and out running the infield. Good times. I miss baseball so much.

[@travissaban73]

I want to learn to bunt

[@butterfinger4393]

Can a hitter hold the bat at a butting position before the pitch? And is it a strike if he misses the ball?

[@mattg6390]

Yeah, it's a strike if he misses the ball while holding the bat in a bunting position and you can hold the bat in a bunting position before the pitch. Guys don't do that very often because they want to catch the pitcher and defense by surprise. Sometimes a pitcher will show bunt before the pitch because pretty much everybody already knows they are going to bunt. Sorry for the very long response

[@nicorobinson5645]

Please edit this an put in ichiros Home run bunt 😂

[@rbrown5964]

Was that real ? Actually real not deepfake?

[@tkmonte1908]

That NYY vs OAK 1:28 was a foul wasn't it? It went out and came back. I don't play baseball.

[@jordancarroll2171]

Good luck pitcher im coming thruuuuu!!!!

[@farrahjordan1396]

Does anyone know the years of these games?

[@joedub5486]

1945-1950

[@milobaseball3952]

Nice vid and idea

[@Mojojojo335]

0:17 can somebody explain why he didn’t pick the ball up and throw him out? I’m a basketball/football guy

[@loganbuckeye11]

because he thought it might go foul

[@nybirdman]

This is like a bunting highlight for kids 30 and under. Go watch the Greats from the 80’s and 90’s like Brett Butler and Otis Nixon. They have many bunts better than anything on this clip.

[@Xanthopathy]

ok dad

[@preshant91]

Americans will get Cricket some day.

[@zeqid300]

My friend got a home run on a bunt

[@renardmigrant]

I'm guessing a bunt and a couple of errors, which of course isn't a home run.

[@zeqid300]

Martin Gardner no he was in pickles and he's a savage went to third and safe the third baseman had the ball and he went home

[@VolatileExceedra]

I'm early

[@29proto]

so a bunch of these have players making contact with one foot out of the box. to be clear, the foot needs to be fully out of the box and on the ground. I hate when calls are missed

[@andrewabraham7455]

29proto no ump is going to call that in really life. Hate when people who don't play baseball pretend to know the "rules"

[@29proto]

why wouldn't they? it's a rule. i make that call every time.

[@andrewabraham7455]

29proto it's like the speed limit. the rule there but it's rarely enforce just because it's impractical and the game functions normally without it. It's just understood by real players that that's part of how baseball is played.

[@29proto]

no. you bunt with 2 feet in the box. otherwise it's cheating.

[@andrewabraham7455]

29proto you're laughable. You obviously have never played the game and don't have a running understanding of its rules. That is going to be called very rarely cause 1) some rule just aren't enforced in the actual playing of the sport (which is made obvious in the above video) and 2) most umpires won't be able to judge that as they're primarily watching the pitch. Yes, it's a rule. But no, it is not enforced regularly and that's fine, a byproduct of actually playing the game; something it's obvious you've never done.

[@muzakdeep]

Half these bunts are not even good, they are lucky Texas Leaguers

[@mattg6390]

They are fun to watch though
