Most teams will bunt the ball toward the first-base line because the third baseman is charging hard; the second baseman then covers first. It is very important to get an out on this play. Lots of teams use the fake bunt and swing, or what is called the "slash." 1, record 2, English, - slash
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Slash bunt. This offensive play takes place when the defense is expecting a bunt and is charging hard prior to the pitch getting ready to field the bunt.

Se utiliza para llamar la atención a la defensa contraria, de que se acerquen para defender un toque y sorprenderla con un batazo duro. 1, record 2, Spanish, - amago%20de%20toque%20y%20bateo
