Peters is hitting a home run with his rookie season.
Tristan Peters, a former Okotoks Dawgs player, is making waves in the MLB with his impressive home run streak. The 26-year-old centre fielder for the Chicago White Sox has homered in four consecutive games, including a recent 11-7 victory over the Texas Rangers.
Peters’ current streak leaves him one shy of tying the White Sox franchise record of five consecutive games with a home run. His impressive performance comes just over a year after he made his MLB debut with the Tampa Bay Rays on Aug. 8, 2025.
Across his last seven games, Peters has batted .318 and reached base in more than 42 per cent of his plate appearances. His journey to the MLB began with the Dawgs Academy, where he played as a 16-year-old from Winkler, Man.
Peters established a league record for hits in a single season with 90 during his breakout season with the Dawgs in 2019. He was named the WCBL Canadian Rookie of the Year for his performance that season.
Peters now has a chance to tie the White Sox franchise record for consecutive games with a home run when they face the Rangers again tonight at 5:40 p.m.
