Guardians Topple Rangers, 11-4, as Rendon Shines
Cleveland first baseman Anthony Rendon had 5 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Texas Rangers, 11-4. David Wells was the winner. Over 8.1 innings, he yielded 3 runs on 8 hits, with 2 walks and 4 strikeouts. The Rangers drop to 7-14, as their fitful start to the 2000 campaign continues.

Cleveland left fielder Cory Sullivan contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a knuckle curve to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 16th hit of the season and put the Guardians ahead, 3-1.

"You start putting runs on the board and winning, everyone's going to get excited," said Rendon.
