KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) Salvador Perez homered, reliever Brian Flynn picked up the win with three scoreless innings and the Kansas City Royals beat the Minnesota Twins 4-2 on Saturday night. The Royals won back-to-back games for the first time since May 29-30. Perez belted his 14th homer with Mike Moustakas aboard in the first.
