ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Rays’ latest bullpen day had a rocky beginning and a strong finish. Relievers Vidal Nuno and Austin Pruitt combined to throw 8 2/3 scoreless innings, Brad Miller had three RBIs and the Rays beat the Baltimore Orioles 8-3 on Sunday. Pruitt entered in the fourth and limited Baltimore to three hits over the final 5 2/3 innings to get his first save. “I had one (save) last year that was three innings, but 5 2/3 innings, that’s lengthy,” Pruitt said. Rays: RHP Chris Archer (3-3, 4.68) will face Athletics RHP Trevor Cahill (1-2, 2.75) Monday in the first of four at Oakland.
