Batter squares to bunt and doesnt swing?

It's when you square around to bunt, but then bring the bat back and swing away.

Since the runners are on the move during a bunt attempt, they can frequently move up 2 bases if the butcher boy swing is succesful in driving the ball into the shallow outfield. It is definitelly different than a Baltimore chop.
