Live blog: Bruce's 3-run bomb puts Tribe up in 1st

Bottom 1st: Indians 3, Tigers 1

It looked like Buck Farmer might be able to work himself out of an early jam, but Jay Bruce had other plans, hitting a three-run home run to left field with two outs to give the Tribe a 3-1 lead.

Francisco Lindor led things off with a double down the right field line. After Lonnie Chisenhall struck out swinging, Farmer walked Jose Ramirez to put runners on first and second. Farmer bounced back to strike out Edwin Encarnacion, but that's when Bruce went yard.

Top 1st: Tigers 1, Indians 0

Alex Presley notched a one-out single to left field off of Tribe starter Mike Clevinger.
