Rays' Kevin Cash unhappy with Chris Archer's sprint

BALTIMORE -- Tampa Bay's Chris Archer was about to pitch to Baltimore's Chris Davis when the Rays pitcher noticed Jace Peterson attempting to steal third base, which was uncovered because of an infield shift.

Archer sprinted from the mound and attempted to tag Peterson before he could reach third. Archer was unsuccessful and appeared to come up limping after a mild collision Thursday.

"If I could have run out there myself and stopped him, I would have done it," Rays manager Kevin Cash said after his team's 9-5 win Thursday night.
