Duffy, KC can`t recover from tough 1st vs. Tribe
(MLB.com Kansas City Royals)

The Indians capitalized on some early command woes from Royals lefty Danny Duffy and Michael Brantley once again played the role of hero in a home opener for the Tribe, leading to a 3-2 victory on Friday at Progressive Field. Brantley, who was activated from the disabled list prior to the game, delivered a go-ahead two-run single off Duffy in the pitcher`s erratic first frame, backing a strong start from Indians righty Carlos Carrasco.
