Well he actually didn't really screw up. Jimenez walked the catcher yea thats bad but it was just his first walk. Then Stewart botches the bunt. Then Stewart botches ANOTHER bunt!!!!!
So basically Stewart blew it
I'm too lazy to make a sig at the moment

Didn't Jimenez blow the second bunt? I remember the announcers talking about "See how good a defender Jimenez is? He was close on that throw to third" Of course, wouldn't a good defender take the out at 1st?

Nope, Ubaldo made a nice, athletic play to get off the mound and field the bunt. He threw it perfectly to third, but Stewart never touched the bag. If he would have, that would have been an out.
