Me, why is Hyde PH McKenna?! Red Sox, intentionally walk him. 

I mean given the situation and the bunt I sort of get it....but it's also craz

Forces them to throw strikes to Chirinos? Or trust Chirinos to bunt better than Nevin? Or dumb play but got lucky?

No it just creates the force out. Runner at 1st doesn’t matter. 
 

Hyder got out managed again at the end. If we don’t get lucky on the bad throw, was Owings gonna hit?

How did he get out managed.  You want to put the best bunter in to bunt in that spot and force them to make a decision.  He did exactly that.  He put in his fastest player and best bunter in a spot you want to move the runner over to get man on 3rd and less then 2 outs.
