I will add just a few things here:

As noted, Corners In is used if you have suspicions that the offense may be bunting, but you may not be sure. When using this with a runner on 1st, you can guard against the bunt, but still leave yourself the possibility of a double-play since your 2B and SS are playing at normal depth.

As for the Hit and Run, there is a drawback to it. If your hitter lines out to an infielder, the runner (who was running with the pitch) will likely be doubled off his base.
