Cranks first homer Peterson went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-0 win over the Padres. Impact Peterson entered in the seventh inning to pinch hit for Corbin Burnes, but he stayed in the game at second base. His second plate appearance led to his first home run of the season, which came off Craig Stammen in the ninth inning. Peterson is getting more playing time with Kolten Wong (oblique) on the 10-day injured list, but he usually comes off the bench. He only has three hits and three walks in 24 plate appearances.
