Perez went 1-for-4 with a three-run double in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Angels.
Perez's bases-clearing double in the ninth inning gave the Royals some extra breathing room. The knock was enough to give him 100 RBI on the year, a mark he's reached in three of the last five seasons. The catcher has plated nearly one-fifth of his total over his last 11 games, supplying 19 RBI in that span. He's one of 14 players to reach 100 RBI this season through Thursday's action. Perez has added a .241/.286/.454 slash line, 30 home runs, 54 runs scored and 35 doubles across 152 contests.
Perez went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and two walks in Wednesday's 7-5 win over the Mariners.
Perez is now up to 29 long balls and 92 RBI this year, putting him on the precipice of his first 30-homer campaign since 2021 and the second of his career. The veteran backstop has six big flies in September and four in his past four games. Over his last 57 at-bats, Perez is batting just .211 but is slugging .561 with 15 RBI as he also pushes for the third 100-RBI season of his career.
Perez went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer and five total RBI in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Phillies.
Perez extended Kansas City's lead to 6-2 with a homer off Aaron Nola in the sixth inning, his 28th this year, before adding two more RBI with a base hit in the seventh. Perez now has three homers and eight RBI in his last two games after going just 2-for-23 with no RBI in his previous six contests. Overall, the 35-year-old veteran is slashing .237/.278/.450 with 89 RBI and 51 runs scored across 589 plate appearances this season.

Royals' Salvador Perez: Reaches big milestones in loss
Rotowire
Perez went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 8-6 loss to the Phillies.
The future Hall of Famer helped give the Royals an early 4-2 lead by taking Taijuan Walker deep twice in the first three innings. It was Perez's fourth multi-homer performance of the year, and the second blast not only gave him 27 home runs on the season, it lifted him to 300 HR for his career, as well as 1,000 career RBI. The 35-year-old Perez has been fading overall in September, however, batting just .178 (8-for-45) through 12 games this month with a 0:9 BB:K, although six of those eight hits (two doubles and four homers) have gone for extra bases.

Royals' Salvador Perez: Pops homer in win
Rotowire
Perez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Angels.
Perez helped the Royals finish erasing the early 3-0 deficit they faced, as he went yard in the seventh inning to tie the game. The catcher has gone just 4-for-32 (.125) over his last nine games, though all four of his hits in that span have gone for extra bases. He's up to 24 homers, 78 RBI, 47 runs scored and 33 doubles while slashing .240/.284/.444 through 133 contests. Perez has remained the Royals' primary catcher even with prospect Carter Jensen getting a September call-up, as Jensen just made his first start at designated hitter in Thursday's contest. This may continue to be a trend as long as the Royals are within striking distance in the wild-card race, but don't be surprised to see Perez get more rest if they fall too far behind.
Perez went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI, a double and an additional run scored Wednesday's 12-1 win over the White Sox.
The homer was Perez's fifth of the month and his 23rd of the campaign. The veteran backstop had a dismal .606 OPS through May 31, but he's fared much better at the plate for the Royals and fantasy managers since the start of June. Perez is batting .266 with 19 long balls, 17 doubles and 51 RBI over his last 72 outings to raise his OPS to .742 for the year.
