Austin Wilson Named Midwest League Player Of The Week For Period April 28-May 4, 2014

(.375/.429/.833, 7 G, 9-for-24, 3 2B, 1 3B, 2 HR, 11 RBI, 6 R, 3 BB, 3 K)
Wilson's 11 RBIs in seven games are impressive on their own, but in context, they jump out even more. The right-handed outfielder drove in four as part of a 3-for-4 performance -- he missed the cycle by a homer -- in the second half of a doubleheader against Quad Cities on Wednesday and went beyond that by plating six runs three days later. His previous career high for RBIs in one game was three, set last year with Class A Short Season Everett and matched on April 11 this season.
