Perez (11-10) beat the Angels on Sunday after allowing three runs on nine hits with two walks and four strikeouts over six innings.
Perez still owns an uninspiring 4.87 ERA but has helped out a Texas team looking to claw its way into a Wild Card spot with wins in each of his past six starts. He'll put that streak on the line Saturday in what should be a high-scoring home contest against the Yankees.
