Houston Astros mascot Orbit further escalated his prank war with Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Chris Archer on Tuesday night.

One day after Archer presented Orbit with a "declaration of unfriendliness," the mascot decided to gift Archer with a "peace offering" of a chocolate bar and "electrolyte formula" prior to the right-hander's start against the Astros.

Orbit wasn't too concerned, as he and Archer have a history of tomfoolery.
