Fantasy Impact
His lone hit was a significant one, driving in three runs to help secure the win for Kansas City. Perez's performance this season has been impressive, boasting a .351 batting average and 30 RBI through 32 games. His power numbers are also notable with eight homers to his credit.

Fantasy Impact
This performance underscores Perez's consistent power-hitting ability this season, maintaining a strong .342 batting average with six homers and 22 RBI through 20 games.
