Moreland pinch hit for Chris Young in the seventh inning Wednesday and stayed in the game at DH, going 2-for-2 with a home run and four RBI.

EDGE Analysis

The homer was his 18th of the year and fourth in his last eight games. Moreland's put together a tremendous August, hitting .347 (26-for-75) with five home runs and 18 RBI in 25 games, but Boston's crowded roster and his meager .662 OPS against lefties figures to keep him in a platoon role between first base and DH for the rest of the season.
