Jay Bruce played first base for the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night against the Chicago Cubs, a position he had not held since high school. An error by Bruce contributed to an early run for the Cubs in the opening game of the five-game series. However, Bruce later hit a home run to help spark the Reds' rally, leading to a 9-3 victory.
