## Resource

Salvador Perez just shattered history, becoming the all-time home run leader for the Kansas City Royals and eclipsing George Brett’s 40-year reign. With his 308th homer, Perez joins Brett in Royals lore — both led the team to a World Series title, 30 years apart. Since his 2011 debut, he’s hit at least 15 homers every season, including a 2021 MVP-caliber year. Even as he shifts from catching, he’s still crushing homers from behind the plate. At 35, his legacy is secure — he’s not just great, he’s now the Royals’ home run king. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
