Updated on June 5, 2025 at 11:43am

Perez is starting in right field and batting fifth against the White Sox on Wednesday.

Perez was initially omitted from Wednesday's lineup, but the 25-year-old will start after Kerry Carpenter was scratched due to right hamstring tightness. Perez has gone 7-for-23 (.304) with two home runs and three RBI since being reinstated from the 60-day injured list May 27.
