Moore settles in debut; Forsythe leads offense

Southpaw Matt Moore made his first start of Spring Training for Tampa Bay and gave up just the Betts hit over two innings.

"It was all right," said Moore, who missed most of the 2015 season rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. I think I was a little more amped up than I hope to be during the season. But that's expected for the first one, a little extra excitement."

Henry Owens turned in a second straight strong start for Boston, firing three shutout innings (two hits, one walk, one strikeout). The lefty is trying to win a spot in the starting rotation.
