MILWAUKEE -- Freddy Peralta's Miller Park debut is finally almost here.
After making his first three Major League starts on the road and seeing a home start pushed back due to Wednesday's rainout in Pittsburgh, the rookie will take the Miller Park mound for the first time on Tuesday against the Royals, giving fans their first look at one of the club's top prospects.
"I'm very excited," Peralta said. "It's like a dream, pitching in Miller Park."
The right-hander started his career on Mother's Day in Colorado, striking out 13 over 5 2/3 scoreless innings in front of his family, who were visiting from the Dominican Republic and had never seen him pitch as a professional.
