Cole improved to 3-0 after striking out three and allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over seven innings in Tuesday's 11-2 win over the Guardians.
Cole didn't make many bats miss Tuesday, but he was effective nevertheless against the Cleveland lineup. He was particularly good after the first inning, as he allowed a pair in that frame before keeping the Guardians off the scoreboard through the next six innings to get his third win in as many starts. Cole now has a 1.40 ERA and 22:7 K:BB over 19.1 innings to begin the campaign.
