You are trying to add AN insurance run, and if you get more, then great. The charts prove you are more likely to score A run with second and third and one out than first and second and no outs. Its okay to bunt in some situations.
This is a tired meme that really doesn't make sense. Playing for one doesn't increase your chances of scoring.

The move two over bunt would be okay if we had Robson or Spruill up.. Not Hump.
