Monday night, the New York Mets weren’t willing to announce Tuesday’s starter. Tuesday night, Mets top prospect David Peterson earns his first career win.
Peterson was impressive in his MLB debut. He threw 5.2 innings, allowed just two runs, seven hits, two walks, and struck out three. Peterson’s control wasn’t at it’s best, but he had his slider working.
Peterson showed off his quick pitching style, induced ground balls when he needed, and limited the damage against him. With some better outfield defense, and some better umpiring Peterson wouldn’t have allowed a run in his debut.
