Matt Moore directed the Tampa Bay Rays to a 3-1 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday, improving his record to 8-0 on the season.
Moore gave up one run, struck out three and walked one to become the first eight-game winner in the majors.
The 23-year-old is the youngest lefty to start the season 8-0 since Ruth did it in 1917 at age 22.
"Historically speaking, it's been wonderful," Joe Maddon said of Moore's season.
