Football and tennis are kicking up for the fall, but baseball is still the National Pastime of summer. And one of the greats of the game in a small market is getting the attention he deserves as one of the greatest at this position. Not just this year. But of all time. Salvador Perez of the Kansas City Royals is rewriting the record books for a catcher right in front of our eyes. We should open them and see. He had as good a week as anyone in baseball this year. Seven games, with home runs in six of them, 14 RBI, only 5 K, with 5 BB, and 10 hits in 28 AB. Oh, and he led his young Royals team to a 4-3 record on the road against 2 playoff contenders over .500. All adds up to a strong Sportsman of the Week!
