After weeks of clamoring for Dillon Peters to be called up to the Miami Marlins, it finally happened on Friday night. The stout left-hander made his debut in front of a mostly empty Marlins Park, but that didn’t appear to phase him in the least.
His night began going in the wrong direction after issuing a walk to his first batter. But he settled in after that. Peters finished the evening going seven shutout innings and striking out eight batters. He walked three and tossed a total of 94-pitches.
He undoubtedly earned another start for the Marlins.
