The Midwest League and MiLB.com announced Monday that Kernels pitcher Sam Gibbons has been named the MWL Pitcher of the Week for the period ending Aug. 23.
Gibbons struck out 12 batters and allowed just one hit in eight innings in a 2-0 win at Clinton Saturday. This is the second time this season that Gibbons has been named Pitcher of the Week.
The Minnesota Twins signed Gibbons as an international free agent on July 2, 2011 and this is his fourth season in professional baseball.
Tanner English, Felix Jorge, Stephen Gonsalves, Trey Vavra, Max Murphy and Keaton Steele of the Kernels also have received one of the weekly honors from the Midwest League this season.
