Salvador Perez Hits Fifth Homer Of July
6 years agoKansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez has figured it out again, and he's back to contributing across the board. After slumping horribly through the month of June, Perez is back to his old self in July by knocking five home runs and batting .276 over the 19 games. This is the Perez of 2017 when he hit 27 home runs and .268 for the season, not the Perez that came into July batting just .212 with 11 big flies. If he can keep this level of performance up, he should retroactively earn that All-Star spot he got this season.
