The homer was Perez's 26th on the season, tops amongst American League catchers.
Kansas City has the worst record in the AL Central and currently sits 31 games behind Cleveland. With a 50–96 record on the season, the Royals will end September looking to avoid their first 100-loss season since 2006.
