Buffalo Bisons LHP Nick Allgeyer has been named the International League Pitcher of the Week for the first week of the 2022 season.

He earned the win on Opening Day on April 5 by allowing just one hit over six innings of work in the Bisons 3-2 win. He retired the first 13 batters he faced in the start and struck out six Cubs batters to only one walk allowed.

Allgeyer started for the Herd again on Sunday and struck out seven over five innings of work. The southpaw yielded just a run on two hits and a walk in the outing. While he didn't earn a decision in the game, the Bisons defeated Iowa, 2-1, to ensure a 4-2 series win to start the season.
