Royals catcher Salvador Perez was held out of the starting lineup for the first time in 18 games Sunday, the Kansas City Star reports. Manager Ned Yost gave him the game off.
"It’s a chance to, with the off day tomorrow, give him two (rest days) in a row," said Yost.
Perez can use the rest as he's gone just 2 for 24 (.083) at the plate over his last six games. He's batting .293 overall with three homers and 28 RBI.
