I've been noticing the Red Sox bunting more. Was curious to see their sac hits/bunts this season compared to previous.
2013: 24
2014: 20
2015: 30
2016: 8
2017: 9
2018: 7
2019: 20
2020: 4 (162 pace: 11)
2021: 10
2022: 12
2023: 11
2024: 7
2025: 13
2026: 24 (162 pace: 36)
And then I thought... I wonder what this season's HR/Sac comparison for all teams looks like?
Now, I realize that the managers cannot dial up a "hit a HR" play, but if you're gonna be in the bottom half of the league in HRs, then you gotta manufacture runs. Someone's doing that.

For 2026 alone:
first 27 games: 2 (162 pace: 12)
last 81 games: 22 (162 pace: 44)
and if we go back just to the start of the Seattle series, which is the Red Sox last 35 games that they've been red hot: 14 (162 pace: 63)
