Why let them bunt?

This concept drives me crazy. I can't believe in all the years that baseball has been played that no one(at least anyone recently) has been willing to take the bunt away from National League hitting pitchers.

Here is the situation. Man on 1st , 0 out, and .034 hitting pitcher strides to the plate. Everyone in the park knows he's bunting and yet the defense will still have the 1B hold the runner (or some variation thereof) and give the pitcher a spot to bunt the ball.

Why not have the 3B AND the 1B commit prior to the pitch. Have the 2B cover 1st base and the SS cover 2B. "Conservative" baseball man - But the right side of the infield is left open. The guy is a pitcher hitting .034. I would think that in this spot you would rather take your chances with the hitting pitcher putting it in play than having him advance a runner in scoring position.

And, there is nothing to say that you couldn't bring an outfielder in to cover the right side of the infield if need be. I just want someone to say, "We know what you want to do and we are not going to let you do it."

Baseball needs to be more like football and think outside the box more often.

Heck, if Major League Baseball were still running football there would be no "West Coast Offense" no "Spread Formations" no "Zone Blitzes". Baseball isn't really interested in having brilliant minds infiltrate the system. But, that's for another time.
