Richie Ashburn drag bunting (circa 1951). Richie was fast going to 1st base......only 3.0 seconds.
I asked Richie this when I got this photo autographed: " Richie.... who was the fastest going down the line to 1st base ? " Richie replied..... " Every year during the 1950's, the sportscasters would time Mickey Mantle (batting Left-handed) and I with a precision stop-watch. Both of us did it in exactly 3.0 seconds. "  TED Z T206 Reference .

Warning! Do not put your fingers on the exposed side of the bat! This is not one of the best pictures ever on how to bunt... ;-)

One or two of these, Hornsby for instance, may or may not qualify as bunt poses, and no one knows what the hell Leard is doing.

A virtual bunter's paradise has been posted...keep them coming.
I especially like the 1939 W711 of Frey...I didn't remember any post deadball/pre-WW2 cards that showed bunters. And I have this card. Thanks David. I don't think anyone has ever figured out what is going on with Leard, but I am pretty sure I have run into a few striking this pose on a crowded subway train before. And this thread has inspired me to change my avatar...sometimes bunting is the best way to protect the one you love. Brian Last edited by brianp-beme; 12-07-2017 at 12:26 AM.

This made me curious about the records, and found it interesting to see the difference in the game over the years.
The current active leader for Sacrifice Hits (Sacrifice Bunts) is Elvis Andrus with 100, with the second place being Clayton Kershaw with 89. Yet this only ranks them 395 and 488 all time respectively. The leader is Eddie Collins with 512 a record that may never be broken as the second place is Jake Daubert with 392. So Eddie Collins has more of a lead over second place than any current player has over their entire career (120 vs 100). https://www.baseball-reference.com/l...H_career.shtml

Better be successful!
If this is a bunting stance, it certainly is a dangerous one.
