Royals' Salvador Perez: In Wednesday's lineup

Perez (groin) will start at catcher and bat cleanup Wednesday in the first game of a doubleheader with the White Sox.

Perez missed Monday's 2-0 win after being diagnosed with a Grade 1 left groin strain and had been slated to sit out Tuesday's contest before it was rained out. However, with another day of rest, Perez is back behind the plate for the afternoon game. Freddy Fermin will surely catch the second game Wednesday, but it's possible Perez could play first base or serve as the designated hitter in the nightcap.
