Venezuelan catcher Salvador Pérez has one of the best arms in the Major Leagues and this Saturday he revealed it in a match against the New York Yankees, with Mulos star Anthony Rizzo as his victim.
During the top of the third inning and before the shipments of Carlos Hernández, also from Venezuela, Salvador asked for a fastball that would allow him to take quickly and throw before a hypothetical steal by the Yankees.
And his reading of the game was perfect, because after pitching Rizzo, who was on second after a double that put New York to win, he decided to steal third base.
Salvador Pérez’s throw was almost right at the foot of the base, which was essential so that the first baseman was removed in an action that made it clear that Pérez has one of the best arms in MLB.
However, that was not the only task that the Latino mask had, because later in the game he also retired another of the Yankees running backs.
Despite his performance, the Yankees ended up taking the road win by beating the Royals 3-0 with Cy Young winner Gerrit Cole winning.
Since his debut in 2011, Salvador Pérez has established himself as one of the catchers with the highest effectiveness of retired players in attempted steal, which has earned him five Major League Gold Gloves, the last in 2018. 2022
In addition, at the start of the season Pérez has also started well offensively by connecting five home runs and drive in nine runs in 18 games.
