Can any rule experts explain why that isn't a hit by pitch. Did it bounce of Perez first? 

Likely because it hit the ground first.  Pretty clear on TV.

He has pitched good. 
 

Not that it earns you anything on this team :)

It’ll be a small victory if the twins end this game using only 2 pitchers 

It was part of the plan to only pitch 8 innings tonight to rest the pen.

Only thing that’s gone right this season!

[David HK]

Sparse crowd in KC.  One of the bright spots in this horrible early season is that there are fewer actual witnesses...

[Aggies7]

Ugh foul by inches

I am on the radio, but I wondered the same.

It can still be a HBP if it bounces.

Had it hit Perez and then rebounded to hit Buxton?

In this case, it hit the ground and then bounced off Perez and then hit Buxton.

[Aggies7]

Excitement 

[Aggies7]

Good hard shot at least

[$tryf4Life]

Way too many long periods of baseball game where this team plays flat boring baseball. 
 

I am ready to accept it.
 

This team is bad.

Can't say as I recall.  Entirely possible, however. 

[David HK]

Bader does what he can.  And thank god somebody pinch hit for Vazquez.  But woof-- another pathetic display.

I honestly couldn't tell if it struck Perez first. If it didn't... that's a HBP. 

Nobody was arguing so... Perez must have made contact with it. 

[jkcarew]

Moral victory. Learn to enjoy these.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Similar to last year, they lose games at the margins.

Bader does what he can.   Bader has been our best player so far , and the kid plays with a effort that SHOWS

[IndyTwinsFan]

I think it's going to be a long summer watching this AAAA team play.  And a lot of it probably won't be enjoyable to watch, like today.

[Parfigliano]

TC on pace for 48 wins

Too bad we don't have more players like him.

[SD happy]

Tough to win when your 2-3-4 hitters go 0-12.

[shimrod]

The Twins are a bad baseball team. But they will never be as bad as tonight's home plate ump. Woof.
