When Kirby Yates is pitching the game is either going very well or very bad. Tonight happened to be the latter.
Matt Moore's second start since being recalled from Triple-A Durham wasn't close to being as successful as his first. In that first start he looked to be his old self for the first four innings, locating everything effectively and using his offspeed pitches to perfection. That wasn't the case tonight. Moore failed to command his fastball, leaving it over the middle of the plate a time or ten and paid dearly for it.
After two infield singles in the first inning, Moore left one of those aforementioned fastball's over the middle of the plate to David Ortiz, and Ortiz did what he'd done many times in that situation and crushed it over the right field wall for his 499th career home run.
