Perez Ties HR Record in Splashy Moment | Kansas City Royals News

Salvador Perez just tied the Royals’ all-time home run record with a dramatic blast that landed in the stadium’s fountains—prompting one fan to dive in for the ball, get escorted out, and briefly arrested. Security’s strict “no jumping” rule sparked nationwide buzz, while Perez himself praised the fan’s passion, joked he’d have done the same for the historic homer, and celebrated the moment as pure joy in front of his beloved home crowd. After 15 seasons with the Royals, Perez’s legacy is cemented with nine All-Star nods, five Gold Gloves, five Silver Sluggers, and a World Series MVP—making this milestone not just a record, but a Hall of Fame-worthy moment for fans and franchise alike.
