Stop payment on check from Schwab to me and have them wire it?

New to Schwab with a new broker. Transferred my beneficiary IRA into Schwab a month ago. I took a distribution for closing costs on a home and settlement is Monday. Funds settled and transfered yesterday but they sent a check instead of a wire.

Would Schwab be able to put a hold on the check and wire me the funds same day? I'm not sure if the broker or Schwab screwed up but I don't want delay getting the funds even longer than it would take to get the check.
