Peralta has played in seven games in his career at Petco Park and has reached base in six of those contests with a .375 batting average. The “pitcher’s park” in San Diego has always been rough against hitters and Peralta’s .375 average is good for eighth all-time at the ballpark amongst players with at least 20 plate appearances there.
He got off to a slow start to the year, going 2-for-11 in four games at home. He did smack a long three-run home run against the San Francisco Giants in the second game of the year however.
