PEORIA, IL - Quinn Mathews added to his long list of accolades on Monday. Mathews was named the Midwest League Pitcher of the Week for the week of May 29.

Mathews continued his torrid 2024 season by twirling six shutout innings at Lansing on May 30. He scattered just two hits and punched out six Lansing hitters.
On the year, Mathews is 3-2 with a 1.99 ERA between nine starts with Peoria and Single-A Palm Beach.

The Chiefs continue their 12-game road trip in Fort Wayne on Tuesday.
