Perfumed Perez making good scents for Royals The upbeat All-Star catcher for the Kansas City Royals wore Victoria's Secret perfume late in the 2013 season — teammate Alcides Escobar sprayed some on him, and Perez had a four-hit game. Perez said San Francisco's Pablo Sandoval, Detroit's Victor Martinez and Texas' Prince Fielder are among the players who have remarked about his baseball bouquet. Yost never wants to see his hitters take an oh-fer-4 at the plate. Perez was a 16-year-old free agent in Venezuela when he signed with the Royals in 2006. Perez homered to drive in Kansas City's run in its 7-1 opening loss to San Francisco, then hit a two-run double for a 5-2, sixth-inning lead as the Royals won the second game 7-2 on Wednesday night. Perez scored moments later and got into a dustup with Giants reliever Hunter Strickland at home plate.
