It's been a season of firsts for Shane Peterson.
The 27-year-old joined the Milwaukee Brewers on June 3 from Class AAA Colorado Springs with just two previous major-league games under his belt. Since then, he's proven to be a competent pinch hitter, made his first start since 2013 at first base and is now playing most days in center field after the CarlosGomez trade.
He says he really couldn't ask for anything more, despite the fact he hasn't played center regularly since the first half of 2014 while in the minor-league system of the Oakland A's.
