Great video. Our 12U little league team has been ending practices with bunt scrimmages. I find with the 60 foot bases, unless the bunt is hard right at the pitcher, the best bet is to get the out at 1B. If it is hard at the pitcher, we are teaching the catcher to call it out if the lead runner can be tagged or forced out.

Thanks for covering the subject. I’m coaching 12U and no one hunts anymore in park ball until you hit a travel ball team/player and team falls apart because no one knows what to do. Lol!

love the vids. keep up the good work! why not go through the rest of the bunt rotations for the hell of it.

[@AntonelliBaseball]

Thanks! I'll see if I can get some videos from it.

Great analysis

[@rslwannabe9475]

Im learning this to get ahead of the competition. Even in highschool some kids don't know what to do on every single bunt scenario. 🙄 AKA me and that's how spots get took.

[@JackOlsonBaseball]

very nice, thx!

[@patricktrotta1632]

Thx this helps me a lot

[@itslzy4740]

Thanks man, all ways a help.

[@AntonelliBaseball]

No problem. Thanks for watching!

Brayan Pena didn't do cueto any favors either as he got a horrible secondary and isn't blessed with speed in the first place. Great vid

[@toddlemieux2339]

Does the runner ever hold on second if he can read that it’s a bunt, like this example, right back to the pitcher? Thanks

[@rslwannabe9475]

I'd say get your leadoff and see what happens. Overthrow your gone, throw to 2nd your back, throw to third your back, throw to 1st your back.

This video can also be used to explain how NOT to sacrifice bunt. Why don’t these pros square around? They must have been prancing and getting instruction since Little League.

[@ItsYaBoySkinnyPenis69420]

maybe use a video where you can see what the fuck is going on next time

[@joefaherty]

Horrible bunt.
