this is when the ball goes over the pitchers mound and hits the second base man in the head. The batter gets a hit, but the second basemen has been sacrificed.

When someone bunts the ball and runs to first and the fielder throws to home trying to get the out there does the bunt-er have a hit or a sacrifice as no one was put out?

I would consider it a hit/bunt. It is a sacrifice bunt if the bunter knows they will get out so another runner can advance or get a run. Hope this kind of helps
