Not many of those “unwritten” rules in softball as there are in baseball. Plus with slappers, bunting is much more apart of the game than baseball. Had a girl once who was a converted regular right handed hitter but couldn’t cut it, so because of her athleticism and speed was converted to a lefty slapper. Well major adjustment period and early on couldn’t hack it as a slapper either but could bunt with the best of them so only way she got on base was via the bunt. In a no hitter, yeah it sucks but I bet Emma would tell you they should have defended it better.
