how does this happen?

Didn't happen to me or for me, but someone in my league asked so explain please. How do you get a Home Run to CF on a bunt.


TOP OF INNING 1
0 D.Lough bunt Home Run (CF) b-H F9
0 J.Altuve 4-9 Ground Out (3B) b-0 F9
1 A.De Aza 1-9 Strike Out b-0 F9
2 L.Cain 5-7 Strike Out b-0 F9

Lough popped the bunt up over the 2nd baseman's head, the 2B, CF, & RF all dove to catch it and collided; the ball rolled safely to the CF wall, as Lough circled the bases....maybe?

The only thing I can think of is perhaps a roll resulting in "1 and 2" occured. The mgr then elected to take the bunt off and swing away.

Did you email support? I be interested to see what SOM says about this

had to be 110+ mph and a hitter with a helluva backhand in tennis.

On the play by play does it read bunt or a dice roll?

It says bunt. I showed above exactly what it says. no dice roll for him. dice rolls for the others Altuve 4-9, de Aza 1-9, Cain 5-7.

Lough has a B-bunt rating, we don't have the chart for "bunt for a hit", but here is the chart for bunting per se

2 SAC
3 SAC
4 SPEED
5 SAC
6 DEFENSE
7 SAC
8 SAC
9 SAC
10 POP
11 1AND2
12 1AND2

So 3 chances of 1AND2...I didn't know though that 1AND2 also resulted in "bunt for a hit".

This HAS to be a bunt for hit roll as it was the leadoff batter in the game.

If you had sent an email to customer support you'd have an answer by now

not my game, I posted it for one of the guys in the league that it happened to. He may have contacted support, I don't know. I don't really care that bad. I just look on here when browsing the forums and see if anyone answered and gave responses to questions people posted.
