bunting

Maybe this has been asked before, but is there a way to bunt down the 3rd baseline? I always only bunt down the 1st baseline or pop it up.

Hold R2 and move the right stick left youll feel it vibrate and that means when you but you will be trying to direct it towards 3rd

Re: bunting

Weird, 98% of my bunts are to the 3rd baseman.

Yeah, this. Directional influence is key with bunts. It's especially great on squeeze plays, where you want to make sure you bunt towards first.

Regular BUNT Vs. DRAG Bunt

Might as well piggyback this thread , dont need a new one .

Question . I have a hitter with a 19 attribute rating on regular BUNT and an attribute rating of 42 on DRAG bunting . Am I better off using the drag bunt with him when I want to sacrifice advance a runner or is it still better to use regular BUNT ? I'm not looking to get on base with my hitter , who only has a 28 SPEED rating . My sole intent is to just advance runners .

Thanxs , Caulfield .
