Braves’ Peterson feeling better at plate as season winds down

MIAMI – Jace Peterson never played as much baseball in one year as he has now, even if you were to add his 22 games and 100 plate appearances in the 2014 Arizona Fall League to his totals that year in Double-A, Triple-A and the major leagues as a Padres rookie.

But though it’s been a tough season at times for the Braves second baseman, who slumped offensively for most of three months, Peterson doesn’t want it to end. The Braves only have nine games left, beginning with their final road series against the Marlins, and the season is winding down as Peterson has begun to feel better again at the plate.
