That decisionis left up to the person who is the 'official scorer' for the game. If the batter turns and shows bunt before the pitcher throws he usually is credited with a sacrifice whether an error is committed or not. But if the official scorer thinks that the batter was trying for a base hit and not for a sacrifice he may score it solely as an error.

Where did the baseball term in the hole come from?

Best I can determine, the term "In the hole", referred to the batter following the batter on deck. Looking at old baseball movies, some of the footage actually showed a second circle painted on the field between the on deck circle and the dugout. At one time, both the on deck batter and the in the hole batter both knelt in their circles awaiting their turns. Somehow the in the hole circle has no longer been painted on the latter day fields, probably for safety reasons, but the batter following the on deck batter is still considered to be in the hole.
