Salvador Perez just shattered history, becoming the all-time home run leader for the Kansas City Royals with his 318th blast—surpassing George Brett and joining an elite group of eight catchers ever to hit 300 homers. He tied Brett’s record at Kauffman Stadium earlier this week, earning a standing ovation from the home crowd, and now stands as a franchise icon embodying grit, work ethic, and loyalty.
