Of course, this misses out on bunts that were pulled back at the last second. This tracks only bunts that were committed to. Over the six years, there’s a sample of more than 36,000.
The breakdown:

  • Overall: 49.7% fair bunts
  • Pitchers: 49.9%
  • Non-Pitchers: 49.6%

The sample for pitchers is about 10,000. The sample for non-pitchers is about 26,000. There’s basically no difference. About half the time they’ve committed to a bunt, they’ve bunted the ball in play. That means that, half the time, they’ve messed up.

Clarification from you, bc not reading all that link crap, so included in the numbers is if one guy bunts and fouls it back or takes it, and then the next pitch he successfully gets it down then he's 50%? Am I reading that correct.
