Winless Indians place starting pitcher Lewis on DL
CLEVELAND (AP) - The Cleveland Indians have placed starter Scott Lewis on the 15-day disabled list with an elbow strain.

Lewis pitched 4 1-3 innings in Friday's home-opening loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. The left-hander beat out several other pitchers for a spot in Cleveland's rotation this spring.

With their bullpen overworked and underperforming, the club purchased the contract of right-hander Vinnie Chulk from Triple-A Columbus. Chulk arrived in time for Saturday's game against Toronto as the Indians tried to get their first win of the season after an 0-4 start.

On Friday, the Blue Jays snapped a 7-7 tie by scoring six runs in the eighth inning off Cleveland's relievers.
