The bounce pass is used in Basketball. It is most often used as part of a quick scoring drive when the ball handler is under the basket and has too many defenders on him to shoot. The bounce can be tweaked with spin, making it harder to intercept than a snap pass.
(edit)... The above is true, but a bounce pass IS also a good idea in Baseball when an outfielder is throwing a long distance (e.g. Center Field to Home, or Right Field to first base). The idea is that if the distance is too great for the fielder to throw the ball low and fast, he could throw a "rainbow" pass, a bounce pass, or throw to the "cut-off" man. The bounce pass has the advantage of being low and fast, with the disadvantage of a potential "bad hop" off the ground. The rainbow or "lob" pass is slow because it has to travel up, and then down, which takes longer than a low and fast throw. A bounce pass may get there faster than using the cutoff, but it also may bounce wrong off the ground. Using a cut-off man, when available, gives added precision to the play, and with practice, the turn-around time for the cut-off man can be minimal.
