For decades, bunting was a staple of a Major League Baseball team's offensive strategy. Now, it's considered a penalizing measure in the effort to score runs. And the abandonment of the bunt in MLB has filtered down into the lower ranks of baseball, even down to Little League. In answering this question, and in providing a counter argument to the controversial nature of bunting, I went down several rabbit holes before finding my way to the surface. My bottom line: Bunting should not be controversial. Comments: byroncopley.com email: [email protected] Music: "Field Grass" by Sergei Pavkin
