Salvador Perez's 3-run homer highlights 6-run 5th inning, leads Royals to 6-0 win over Cubs

Salvador Perez hit a three-run homer that highlighted a six-run fifth inning and Kansas City beat the Chicago Cubs 6-0 Friday night in front of the Royals' second-largest crowd of the season. The Royals, in third place in the AL Central behind Cleveland and Minnesota, moved 10 games over .500 at 57-47 and eclipsed last season's win total. “There's no significance to that to me,” manager Matt Quatraro said of surpassing last season's victory total.
