Royals Notes - Kansas City Royals @ Chicago White Sox - Sunday, August 19, 2018

This & That SAL NABS ANOTHER--Four-time Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner, Salvador Perez, allowed a to Adam Engel in the third inning last night, but redeemed himself by nailing Engel at second two innings later...Perez has cut down 10 would-be basestealers in the last 13 attempts against him, dating back to July 24...he’s tied with Oakland’s Jonathan Lucroy for the Major League lead, having retired 21 potential base thieves this season...opponents have the lowest stolen base percentage against Sal at 47.5% (19-for-40), while his overall caught stealing percentage of 53.7% is the highest among MLB backstops that have caught at least 40 games...he’s now thrown out 156 would-be basestealers in his career, just six behind Mike Macfarlane (162) for the most in franchise history. STARTING IT OFF--Whit Merrifield collected the only Royals hit over the first five innings last night, leading off the first inning with a single to left...among Major Leaguers with at least 100 plate appearances in the first inning, Whit ranks sixth with a .337 batting average (33-for-98) and a .404 on-base percentage in the opening frame...he’s hit .320/.376/.431 (95-for-297) hitting out of the leadoff spot in the batting order this season...overall, he’s tied for fifth in the AL in hits (141), seventh in batting average (.302) and tied for ninth in multi-hit games (39), while ranking tied for third in stolen bases (26). PERALTA SOLID IN CLOSER ROLE--Wily Peralta needed just 11 pitches last night to set the Sox down in order in the ninth inning and secure the 3-1 win... it marked Peralta’s eighth save in as many opportunities as he’s one of just two Major League pitchers to be perfect in his save chances this year with at least eight rescues, along with Toronto’s Ken Giles, who is 15-for-15...since having his contract selected from the minors on June 17, Peralta has been at his best with the game on the line, posting a 1.00 ERA (1 ER in 9.0 IP) in save situations, compared to a 5.40 mark (7 ER in 11.2 IP) when a save cannot be achieved. DIVISIONAL WORK--Kansas City has returned to play within the American League Central this weekend, after 10-straight contests against non-division foes during the last homestand...KC has gone 21-28 against its own division this year, while it’s 6-20 vs. the AL East and 7-26 against the West...the Royals are also 4-11 vs. the Senior Circuit this year, with the NL Central being the focus...of the club’s remaining 39 games, 27 of them (69.2%) will be against AL Central foes, with 10 remaining games against Cleveland, seven vs. Minnesota, six vs. Detroit and four more (including today) against these White Sox.

SHOWING OFF THE GOLDEN ARM--Alex Gordon proved once again why he is a five-time Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner last Monday, throwing out Russell Martin at the plate following a single to left field...it was Alex’s ninth outfield assist of the season, one behind the Major League leaders...since becoming a full-time outfielder in 2010, Gordo’s 91 assists are the most in , two ahead of Colorado’s Gerardo Parra (89), who ranks second in that span...his career total is the second-highest in franchise history, trailing only Amos Otis, who had 116 between 1970-83.
