The Illinois Valley Pistol Shrimp clinched the 2024 Prospect League Northwest Division title with a 3-0 victory over the Clinton LumberKings on Thursday night at Schweickert Stadium.

Productive bats lead the LumberKings to a sweep and a playoff berth to the 2024 Prospect League Playoffs in back-to-back years for the first time in Prospect League history and the first time since the 2010-2013 season that the LumberKings have made consecutive playoff appearances during their time in minor league baseball.
