Impact He took Ross Stripling deep in the sixth inning, getting the Royals to within a run at 3-2, but it was as close as they got to tying things up.

Goes yard once again Perez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's win over the White Sox.

Impact The star catcher took Carlos Rodon deep in the first inning and his two-run blast set the tone for the Royals' offense the rest of the way. This was Perez's 25th homer on the season, and he leads all catchers in baseball in that category after going yard for the fourth time over his last six games. The veteran is also hitting .276 with a .825 OPS, six homers and 17 RBI on the month.

Comes through with clutch homer Perez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and two total runs in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the White Sox.

Impact The All-Star catcher doubled leading off the seventh inning and subsequently came around to score the Royals' first run. He then came up to the plate against Chicago closer Liam Hendriks with Kansas City down by a run in the ninth frame and came through with a game-tying solo homer to left field. The long ball was Perez's 24th of the season, tops among all catchers and tied for ninth overall leaguewide. With a .278/.307/.508 slash line and 63 RBI in addition to the long balls, Perez has little competition for the title of 2021's top fantasy catcher.
