Félix Pérez is starting to get hot after a slow start with the lumber. The Cuban slugger collected two hits in four at-bats and knocked in three runs to power Jalisco to a 5-1 win over Monterrey. The outfielder also stole a base in the contest.
The first inning saw a scary incident when a Pérez a sharp ground ball impacted the face of countrymen Yoanys Quiala. Although injured the pitcher was able to walk off on his own power and looks to be okay.
