Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Tosses two-hit gem

Peralta (1-0) earned the win against the Reds on Wednesday by allowing only two hits over eight shutout innings. He struck out 11 and did not issue a walk.

Peralta allowed four runs and was unable to finish four innings during his season debut against the Cardinals, but rebounded in a major way Wednesday. The Reds never managed to reach second base against the 22-year-old. The young right-hander appeared close to returning for the ninth inning, but a lengthy eight-pitch strikeout of Yasiel Puig ended up spelling an end to his afternoon. Peralta lines up to face the Angels on the road next Tuesday.
