Being new to scoring is keeping me confused, but it is fun to learn.
Runner on 3rd and batter bunts down the 3rd base line. The 3rd baseman charges and gets the ball but doesn't throw. He looks at 1st then at 3rd. The runner missed the sign and didn't charge with the fielder so he didn't score (hey, they're 9. it happens). Batter safe at 1st. It wasn't a sure out at 1st since the fielders weren't playing up and the batter did not square around until late. I wasn't sure how to score this.
I'm thinking SB FC, but I was looking for some advice. Would this count as an atbat in the stats?
Thanks in advance.

You should not credit the batter with a SB because no runner advanced. The fact that the runner missed the sign doesn't matter.
It should be scored as a Single since it wasn't a sure out even if the 3rd baseman had gone directly to 1st. So it would count as an At Bat in the stats.
