Montreal Expos/Chris Peters

Question
This may be a shot in the dark, but about twelve years ago, was Chris Peters highlighted in a Sports Illustrated article in which he was about to set a record for 50 straight wins at his highschool.  I may be way off on this but it is driving me crazy, I think it might even have been a Cover Story.  Any info on if this was him or who it was would be greatly appreciated.

Answer
Hi Darcy,

Well, you happen to fall on not only an Expos fan, but a baseball fan AND a longtime SI subscriber too :-) The Peters who was on the cover of SI was Jon Peters, or as they called him back then the next Nolan Ryan. It's funny you bring this up, cuz I was asking myself the same question about 8-9 years ago when the A's drafted 4 pitchers in the first round of the draft, and one of them was Don Peters. So there you are, hope this settles the feud you were having with your mind :-)
