Indians' Roberto Perez: On bench Sunday

Perez is not starting Sunday's series finale against the Royals.

Perez enjoyed his best game of the season Saturday, going 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored. Homers in consecutive games have the 32-year-old at five heading into the All-Star break, though he's primed for a bigger second half after being limited to only 24 games by a finger injury. Austin Hedges is catching and batting eighth Sunday.
