Royals catcher Salvador Perez missed Wednesday's game against the Yankees due to tightness in his lower right leg, MLB.com reports. It is the second time in the last four games he's sat out due to the ailment.
"He's got a bone bruise and he's got a muscle bruise in his calf, which results in tightness in the calf," manager Ned Yost said. "So what we're trying to do is monitor his play right now so that we can get that tightness out of there, because if that tightness continues to get tighter, it will result in a strain, which will make him unavailable for a week to two weeks."
