I told you I'm assuming we get the bunt down. More importantly, your theory is, even when the percentages are in your favor if you successfully sacrifice runners over, you still believe you should not sacrifice runners over in order to take advantage of the percentages out of fear that your SEC baseball player who is a good bunter (Hump) cannot get a sac bunt down and your guy on second (Vickerson) who is a 4.0 home-to-first guy cannot get to third successfully once the sac bunt is laid down. If that is your theory (which amounts to never bunting in any situation), that is fine, just don't expect others, including baseball coaches, to adopt it.
