Pat Malone, who led the AL in wins with 17 in 2000, propelled his team to victory over the Detroit Wolverines. The final score was 4-3, Cleveland. In 7 innings, Malone surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 0. He allowed 1 run. Cleveland is off to a sluggish start, getting just their 10th win in 27 games.

Lance Berkman, who is tied for 6th in the AL in hits with 30, had a direct impact on the outcome. Berkman contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fifth inning to put Cleveland up, 4-1.

"We took home the win," said Malone. "What's not to like?"
