Said his Harvard baseball coach, Norman Shepard, in 1969: "A pitcher like Ray comes along just once in a while. He was one that could throw the ball by the hitter. You don't get a real stopper like Ray every day."
His Major League career lasted about a week, starting two games for the Milwaukee Brewers (né Pilots) against the Cleveland Indians and Detroit Tigers in 1970 (June 4 and June 9). Peters gave up 12 baserunners (7 hits and 5 walks) and 7 earned runs in 2 total innings, and shortly thereafter returned to the minor leagues.
His career MLB totals included an 0-2 record, 1 strikeout, and an earned run average of 31.50. His minor league career lasted three seasons, from 1969–1971.
