  • With runner on third, batter lays down bunt   
  • Ball must be hit well enough that the fielder cannot
  • make the throw to home in time to get the runner!
  • Perfect execution is essential for success!
  • Seattle pulls nifty squeeze on Sox in 2000 playoffs!
  • They win game 3 and eliminate PALE HOSE!
  • Do you know the difference between a "suicide" squeeze and a "safety" squeeze?

  • If the runner waits at third until the batter makes contact with the ball... it's a safety squeeze
  • If the runner breaks from third before the bat touches the ball.... it's a suicide squeeze
