While this has all made me think some about fielding more bunts with the glove, I have to agree with a few who have said it depends on the bunt. Fairman, I see bunts all the time which have stopped rolling shortly in front of the plate, but which are still playable for an out. It make no sense at all for me for a catcher to try to pick up a dead ball like that with her somewhat bulkier glove and then transfer the ball to make the throw to first. I also think that experienced infielders at the older ages have some kind of an internal clock that is going to tell them sometimes that they have no choice but to barehand it. With that being said, I do follow the logic that probably a majority of the time that it makes sense to use the glove, and that probably some of those barehanded pickups and throws are more at risk to turn into errors which make the situation worse.
