bunter
Sacrifice play specialist
A bunter is someone who bunts in baseball—a batter who specializes in or is currently attempting the soft tap that advances runners rather than driving for extra bases: He's a reliable bunter in sacrifice situations.
In British slang, bunter is an old-fashioned term for a low, vulgar woman, now rarely encountered outside period literature.
