ROSEMONT, Ill. – The Big Ten Conference announced its 2018 football preseason honors on Monday in conjunction with the start of Big Ten Media Days at the Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile. A media panel selected the 10-member preseason list, with five representatives each from the East and West Divisions.

Ohio State fielded a pair of honorees on the East Division roster, while Penn State was represented by senior quarterback and unanimous selection Trace McSorley. The Buckeyes were represented by junior defensive end Nick Bosa and sophomore running back J.K. Dobbins.

Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid arrived on the campus of Missouri Western State University to start his 20th season as an NFL head coach, yet finds himself energized by what’s new on his football team for 2018. The offseason changes result in a team navigating through its most significant turnover since Reid’s 2013 arrival in Kansas City.

CHICAGO (AP) — Jose Quintana pitched seven effective innings, keeping Matt Carpenter in the ballpark and leading the Chicago Cubs to a 7-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Quintana allowed two runs and six hits, struck out six and walked four in his first start since July 10. Carpenter’s homer streak ended at six games, a single-season record for St. Louis.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Drew Butera hit a tiebreaking, three-run inside-the-park home run when center fielder Jake Cave failed in his attempt to make a diving catch in the seventh inning, and the Kansas City Royals beat Minnesota 5-3 to take three in a row from the Twins and complete their first series sweep in a year. Kansas City had not swept a series since last July 24-26 at Detroit. Butera had the first inside-the-park-homer by a Royals catcher since Brent Mayne on Sept. 22, 1991.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Outfielder Brian Goodwin has been acquired by the Kansas City Royals from the Washington Nationals for minor league pitcher Jacob Condra-Bogan. The 27-year-old Goodwin hit .200 with three homers and 12 RBIs in 48 games for the Nationals this season. He bruised his left wrist diving for a ball and did not play from April 15 until May 15, when he had two at-bats. He went back on the disabled list, returned June 1 and is hitting .171 in 41 at-bats since.

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa (AP) — The Iowa State football team showed up in storm-ravaged Marshalltown to help residents clean up two days after a destructive tornado swept through the city. The Marshalltown Times-Republican reports that the entire Cyclones roster was on hand Saturday. Players did everything from clearing tree limbs and debris, raking yards, moving remnants of houses, rooftops and garages, and removing furniture from damaged homes and businesses.

CHICAGO (AP) — Matt Carpenter’s homer streak is over. Jose Quintana was that good. Quintana pitched seven effective innings, keeping Carpenter in the ballpark and helping the Chicago Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-2 on Sunday.

Quintana (9-6) allowed two runs and six hits, struck out six and walked four in his first start since July 10. The left-hander also matched his career high with 121 pitches after he got an extended break to work with pitching coach Jim Hickey on his changeup and get over some shoulder fatigue.

Kyle Schwarber hit a tiebreaking solo homer off Mike Mayers (2-1) with two out in the sixth inning, and the Cubs broke it open with three runs in the eighth. The NL Central leaders took three of five from the Cardinals in their first series after the All-Star break and moved 3 1/2 games ahead of second-place Milwaukee.

Carpenter’s homer streak ended at six games, a single-season record for St. Louis.
Cardinals: RHP Luke Weaver, who was the 26th man for Saturday’s doubleheader and started Game 1, returned to the minors. He is expected to return next weekend to make a start.

Cardinals: INF Jedd Gyorko (illness) is feeling much better after sitting out Saturday’s doubleheader, Shildt said. Gyorko grounded out as a pinch hitter with two on in the sixth inning and stayed in the game.

UP NEXT
Cardinals: RHP Daniel Poncedeleon will make his major league debut Monday at Cincinnati. He underwent surgery in 2017 to relieve pressure around his brain after he was hit in the head by a line drive while pitching for Triple-A Memphis. RHP Luis Castillo (5-8, 5.49 ERA) is set to start for the Reds.
