1. What does SH mean? Never noticed this before.

2. In order to record a SF (sac fly) doesn't a runner need to be on third and score?

Sorry for being an idiot.

Sac hit. Same as a sac bunt.

I guess because SB= stolen base, they had to use something else for sac bunt.

[MsStateBaseball]

yes, runner has to score on a sac fly.

if he moves up a base, prob just a sacrifice.

According to Wikipedia:

SH – Sacrifice hit: number of sacrifice bunts which allow runners to advance on the base paths.

Thought that is the definition of Sac Bunt.

A Sac Hit would just be a fielders choice. If a runner scores then batter gets an RBI

[Todd4State]

If you bunt and get a single it's a hit, not a SH.

And while this rarely if ever happens you can score on a sac fly from any base except home of course.
