Cardinals LHP prospect Quinn Mathews allowed one run (unearned) on three hits in 3 2/3 innings for Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday, but also walked four and struck out five.

Command was obviously an issue for Mathews here. He threw 58 percent strikes on the day and just 50 percent first pitch strikes. The good news is that his fastball velocity held at 95 mph for the duration of his outing, and he registered a solid 27 percent whiff rate. The 25-year-old will likely see some MLB innings for a rebuilding Cardinals team this year, but he’ll need to get his command in order.
