Aside from Freddy Peralta taking the mound, there was a significant addition to the Milwaukee Brewers' lineup with Eduardo Escobar being reinstated from the injured list on Friday.
Escobar, who has been out since Aug. 24 with a hamstring strain, was immediately placed into the cleanup spot and started at third base.
