Perez was an offensive spark-plug for the Seals in July, hitting .361 with 4 homers and 24 RBIs. However, his most impressive offensive statistic was his stolen base total: 26 in 27 games played. Perez now has 49 steals on the year and he's two stolen bases away from tying the single-season GBL stolen-base record.
Josh Arhart finished second in the voting for Player of the Month. "Artie" hit .384 with 8 homers and 24 RBIs in July and he continued to find a variety of ways to get on base. Arhart is now tied with Brian Rios for the team lead in on-base percentage with a solid .442 mark, good enough for eighth-best in the league.
Jino Gonzalez earned the third spot in voting by leading the Seals pitching staff with four wins in the month. He had a 3.94 ERA in his five starts in July.
