Tampa Bay’s Chris Archer won his sixth straight decision, allowing three hits over eight innings in a 4-3 home victory over R. A. Dickey and Toronto.
Dickey (3-7), who went on the bereavement list late last week after his father’s death and was activated Monday, gave up three runs and eight hits over seven innings.
“It’s been a tough week,” Dickey said. “I’m not ready to relive any of that. The organization and my teammates, the support I’ve received from those guys, some of the classiest moves I’ve ever been associated with in baseball. It made me feel really good.
