3 true bunts - I credited Mizelle for beating out a squibbler to 1st base (for purpose of Poppin' It!)

the act cannot be well-played, strategic, effective nor successful. "Bunt" is in the same family of sounds of big manly things like hunt, grunt, stunt. The sound of the letter "U" is strong. The sound of "bint" better describes the simple act of holding a bat and letting the pitch hit the bat instead of using the bat to attack the pitch.
You know me - a man of letters, a wordsmith. Just ask @Hokie-2x .
