Rays starter Matt Moore did not have a good beginning to his afternoon Sunday in New York. After Derek Jeter homered off him in his first at-bat back off the disabled list, Moore allowed two more runs to score in the first.
The Tampa Bay starter, who has a 14-3 record on the season and 3.41 ERA, settled down from there. He did give up another two runs, however, and lasted just five innings in the no-decision. Phil Hughes was equally as poor for the Yankees.
Moore gave up five runs on eight hits and no walks with three strikeouts. He allowed two homers and threw 91 pitches over five innings.
The 24-year-old Moore was coming off a complete-game two-hit shutout win at Boston his last time out. He failed to win for just the first time since June 14 Sunday and should bounce back. Moore's next scheduled start comes Saturday against San Francisco.
