Melendez went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo homer and an additional RBI in Saturday's victory over the Angels.
Melendez notched his first multi-walk outing since May 29 and hit his first home run since May 28. He was slashing just .260/.283/.300 over his first 13 June appearances before Saturday, but the Royals currently don't have many options available to challenge Melendez for the starting spot in right field.
