Rays pitcher Matt Moore took the loss in his season debut, giving up two earned runs on six hits and three walks in 5 2/3 innings while striking out four in Wednesday's 3-0 loss to the Blue Jays.
Moore struggled with control issues last season en route to posting a 143:76 K:BB ratio in 150 1/3 innings, and it was more of the same in Wednesday's debut. He threw 60 of his 106 pitches for strikes in the loss. Moore will face the Royals in Kansas City Monday.
