Bunt and Run
A bunt and run play involves the runner(s) stealing at the pitch combined with the batter executing a bunt. Coaches call bunt and  run plays in a couple different situations.

Moving Slower Runners and Avoiding Force Plays - When coaches find themselves in a traditional sacrifice bunt situation (less that 2 outs, with a runner on 1st and/or 2nd) with slower runners on base, they will sometimes call a bunt and run.  Having the runners steal on the pitch gives them extra time to advance to the next base, which reduces the chances of them getting thrown out. When using a bunt and run to move runners, the batter will attempt to execute a sacrifice bunt. (Square up early).

Scoring a Run From 3rd aka (Suicide Squeeze) - A suicide squeeze play will be used in a non-force situation where the batter is ahead in the count, (2-0) and you have less than 2 outs.  In a nutshell, the runner on 3rd is stealing home. When executing a suicide squeeze, the batter needs to use the delayed bunt technique (wait until the last possible moment to square up) to lay the ball down.

In both situations, it is extremely important for the batter to understand that she absolutely, positively must make contact with the ball, regardless of the location of the pitch. The runner(s) will be stealing at the pitch, so failing to make contact with the ball will almost certainly result in the runner being thrown out.

The worst thing we can do in a squeeze situation (other than miss the ball) is to bunt the ball directly back to the pitcher.
