The catcher Venezuelan Salvador Perez rewrites at the point of home runs the history of the Royals of Kansas City in the Big leagues.
Rewrite the history of the Royals it was not enough for Salvador Perez last night, as he not only passed Alex Gordon on the Royals’ all-time home run leaderboard with 191, but then hit his 40th home run of the 2021 season of the MLB and 192 for life in his major league career.
Salvador Pérez is on fire and seems to be hunting Shohei Ohtani in the AL home run lead in the 2021 Major League Baseball season, as he is three (3) home runs away, as the Japanese hit his 43rd of the season last night. .
Due to the home run rhythm that Salvador Pérez has in recent games in the MLB with games of at least two home runs and how Ohtani has fallen, it seems feasible that the Venezuelan reach, pass and beat the Japanese, even also that he can hit 50 home runs this season, something that would not only lead the catcher to continue to rewrite the history of the Royals, but also to another level in the Major Leagues as a superstar.
From September 2020 to September 2021
Salvador Pérez has not stopped batting in MLB since September 2020, he has returned recharged from the operation that made him miss the 2019 Major League season, and that was immediately recognized by the Royals by extending his contract for five (5) years more and $ 80 million.
With this contract extension the Royals not only recognized that Salvador Pérez is one hundred percent (%) and ready to continue being a star, even a superstar in MLB, in addition, they adjusted what some considered had been a robbery without a pistol when they extended him for the first time your contract.
Not just history in the Royals
Salvador Pérez is not only called to be the best mask in the history of the Royals, but also the best Venezuelan catcher for life in the Major Leagues, and that supposedly they signed him especially for his defense and not for his batting, but he does hit and the rest is a mountain and a snake as they say in Venezuela.
MVP and Hall of Fame
In addition, Salvador Pérez is getting into the conversation for the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the American League despite Ohtani’s favoritism and in the same way in the construction of a career and a curriculum of Hall of Fame (Hall of Fame).
