Usually, but not always. SAC is an abbreviation for a sacrifice, a play when the batter turns and bunts the ball in order to advance runners on base while being put out at first base. But, if the fielder makes an error on the play and the batter is not put out the official scorer can still credit the batter with a sacrifice.

When you bunt is there a line that you have to pass with the ball?
No. Even if the batter bunts the ball and it stops dead on home plate, it's a fair ball and he can run. He'll be out by a mile, but it's a fair ball. The trick is to bunt the ball just far enough where none of the fielders can get to it in time to throw out any runners.
How do you score an out when a player gets hit by ball afterbunting while in batters box?
First of all a player cannot be called out if s/he is hit with a bunt while still in the batters box. That is declared a foul ball.

It is ruled a strikout if you ever bunt the ball foul with two strikes.
What happens when a ball is droped and it hits the ground?
There is alot of answers to this questions. If the batter is inside the batters box then it is a foul ball even if the ball hit fair territroy first. If the batter is outside the batter's box then the batter is called out. But if the batter is bunting with a 2 strike count and touches the ball inside the batter's box, then he is out because it is considered to be a fould ball and a two strike foul ball bunt is an out. Also if the batter bunts with a one strike count or less and touches the ball inside the batter's box then it is a fould ball but again if he touched the ball after bunting the ball outside the batter's box then it is an out.
