if its a 2 strike count and less than 2 outs a foul ball from a bunt is technically in play if you guys didn't know... most people don't know that.
Sure, if it’s caught you could tag up. In this case you score even when the bunt lands foul.

I think what he is saying is on an 0-2 with 1 out , the batter bunts foul for a strikeout but because its only the 2nd out the ball is still in play(like a wild pitch).

that is what i was trying to relay. if the bunt lands foul its a live ball like if it were a wild pitch.

You got a source for that? I'm pretty sure it's a dead ball but I could be wrong and can't really find anything from a widely known source that says either way.

I asked my friend whos an umpire because this same situation happened in one of my games and I told him about it and he said that its a obscure rule nobody really knows about because it rarely ever pops up. So take that for what you will i guess.... could be wrong

A bunt foul on 2 strikes is an out in any situation. No matter how many outs... And it's a dead ball.

Your umpire friend is wrong and it would actually come up pretty frequently in the NL.

Correct. Any foul ball that is not caught is considered a dead ball. It’s not an obscure rule. It’s stated in the dead ball section of any baseball rule book. Being a bunt does not change that rule
