Today's scores and summaries:

Orioles 13, Red Sox 8 at Boston (day game):
After coming from behind to erase a 7-0 deficit and force the game into overtime, the Orioles exploded for six runs in the 14th inning and beat the Red Sox, 13-8. The Red Sox built up most of their early lead at the expense of Mike Cuellar, who was kayoed in the fifth inning after giving up 10 hits, including a homer by Jerry Moses. The Orioles began their comeback with five runs in the sixth on a homer by Frank Robinson, three singles and a homer by Davey Johnson. Merv Rettenmund hit for the circuit in the ninth and the tying tally followed on a single by Brooks Robinson, a wild pitch and a double by Andy Etchebarren, scoring pinch-runner Jim Palmer. In the 14th, the Orioles sent 11 men to bat. Etchebarren led off with a safe bunt, Paul Blair walked and Don Buford singled to break the tie. After Terry Crowley walked, Frank Robinson beat out a bunt, plating the second run. Boog Powell and Merv Rettenmund each hit two-run doubles to complete the outburst. Billy Conigliaro homered in the Red Sox half of the 14th.

Angels 7, White Sox 3 at California (night game):
Clyde Wright drove in four runs to help himself to victory as the Angels defeated the White Sox, 7-3. Wright hit singles for RBIs in the second and third innings and doubled to account for two more in the fifth. The lefthander failed to finish, however, giving up a homer by Tommy McCraw in the seventh and yielding a two-run smash by Beill Melton in the eighth before going out in favor of Ken Tatum. Sandy Alomar collected two singles for the Angels and extended his hitting streak to 20 games.

Brewers 4, Twins 1 at Milwaukee (night game):
Staked to a 4-0 lead, Lew Krausse pitched the Brewers to a 4-1 victory over the Twins. The Brewers jumped on Jim Perry for three runs in the first inning on a double by Russ Snyder, single by Dave May, pass to Tito Francona, single by Bob Burda and a fielder's choice. Perry was lifted after Phil Roof singled and Tommy Harper walked in the second. Russ Snyder singled off reliever Tom Hall for the Brewers' last hit of the game, driving in their final run. Krausse retired first the 16 batters before yielding a single by Rich Reese in the fifth. The Twins' three other hits produced their run in the seventh.

Yankees 3, Indians 1 at New York (night game):
Roy White, who hit a double and a triple, drove in all of the Yankees' runs in a 3-1 victory over the Indians. White's triple followed a walk to Bobby Murcer in the first inning. Horace Clarke and Jerry Kenney singled in the third and, one out later, both scored on White's double. Steve Dunning, a rookie from Stanford University, suffered his first loss. Fritz Peterson, who hurled the route for the Yankees, gave up the Indians' run in the fourth on singles by Tony Horton, Chuck Hinton and Graig Nettles.

Tigers 2, Senators 1 at Washington (night game):
A pinch-single by Gates Brown in the seventh inning scored Bill Freehan and enabled the Tigers to edge the Senators, 2-1. Freehan singled with one out and stopped at second on a single by Elliott Maddox. After Norm Cash forced Maddox, Brown batted for Les Cain and rapped the deciding hit.

Mets 8, Cubs 3 at Chicago (day game):
Completing the sweep of the five-game series, the Mets scored six runs in the second inning, with the aid of three errors, and breezed to an 8-3 victory over the Cubs behind the pitching of Jerry Koosman. The Mets pulled two double steals during the game, raising their theft total to 74, exceeding their former club record of 72 in 1968. Donn Clendenon opened the second with a single and Ron Swoboda doubled. When on Kessinger threw wildly to the plate on a relay from the outfield, Clendenon scored. Singles by Joe Foy and Wayne Garrett plated Swoboda. Foy and Garrett then pulled a double steal, Foy scoring on a wild throw by Jack Hiatt. Jerry Grote walked and, after Koosman struck out, Tommie Agee singled and Bud Harrelson doubled, each driving in a run. The final marker of the frame followed when Glenn Beckert threw wildly on a grounder by Ken Singleton. One of the Mets' final markers in the seventh counted when Foy slid home on the front end of a double steal with Grote. Jim Hickman homered with a man on base for the Cubs.

Phillies 3, Expos 2 at Philadelphia (night game):
Byron Browne, who hit a two-run homer in the second inning, lofted a long sacrifice fly in the 11th to give the Phillies a 3-2 victory over the Expos. Don Money singled to open the 11th and Doc Edwards sacrificed. After an intentional pass to Rick Joseph, the runners moved up on a wild pitch by Claude Raymond, putting Money in position to score on Browne's fly. Rusty Staub homered for the Expos in the first inning. Browne hit his homer after a double by Rich Nye in the second. The Expos tied the score with a single by John Bateman, a sacrifice and a double by Bobby Wine in the seventh.

Pirates 3, Cardinals 2 at Pittsburgh (night game):
On the verge of absorbing a 2-0 defeat, the Pirates whacked Steve Carlton for three extra-base hits in the ninth inning and beat the Cardinals. 3-2. Bob Robertson led off with a triple and scored on a double by Al Oliver. Dave Cash followed with a triple and counted the winning run on a sacrifice fly by Richie Hebner.
