Decision on Peralta likely to come Thursday

WASHINGTON Major League Baseball is expected to announce its ruling on Rays pitcher Joel Peralta as early as Thursday.
Peralta was ejected from Tuesday’s 5-4 win against the Nationals in the bottom of the eighth inning after umpires found pine tar inside his glove. The glove was confiscated and sent to the MLB office in New York.
Peralta faces a suspension that could be as along as 10 days. The Rays will be one man short on the roster during that suspension.
Rays manager Joe Maddon said Tuesday the team would likely call up a pitcher and send a position player down to keep a seven-man bullpen at the expense of a shortened bench.
