Detroit Tigers outfielder Dustin Peterson came very close to never making the majors.
The 24-year-old who was selected in the second round of the 2013 draft would have never gotten out of the minors if he didn't survive his near-death experience in 2015.
As explained by Jeff Seidel of the Detroit Free Press, Peterson almost lost his life while traveling with the Atlanta Braves Single-A affiliate back in 2015. The team bus got into an accident while attempting a left-hand turn around 3:45 a.m. on May 13 while traveling about 300 miles from Salem, Virginia, to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
