Tristan Peters Breaks Out With Six RBI in Rout Over Royals
Chicago White Sox outfielder Tristan Peters had a big game in Friday night's 22-1 drubbing of the division-rival Kansas City Royals, going 2-for-5 at the plate with a career-high six RBI, three runs scored, and a walk to improve his season batting average to .289 and his OPS to .804. Most of Peters' damage came on a grand slam in the sixth inning. The 26-year-old has definitely been heating up with the weather, as he's hitting .288 with 16 RBI and 10 runs scored in 10 games during the month for the Pale Hose. The left-handed-hitting Canadian lacks a ton of fantasy upside as a platoon outfielder for the ChiSox, but he has hit a strong .289/.351/.453 with four long balls, 30 RBI, 28 runs scored, and four stolen bases in 226 plate appearances in 2026 in his first year in Chicago and second in the major leagues. Coming into Friday's contest, Peters was hitting .310 (54-for-174) with all three of his home runs against right-handed pitchers. He has just two hits in 25 plate appearances against southpaws, though.
