Today's scores and summaries:

Yankees 6, Orioles 4 at Baltimore (night game):
Felipe Alou knocked in two runs with a triple in the 11th inning to bring the Yankees a 6-4 victory over the Orioles. With one out, Horace Clarke singled and Jerry Kenney sacrificed. The Orioles then passed Bobby Murcer intentionally in order to pitch to Alou, who upset the applecart with his triple.

Tigers 5, Indians 3 at Cleveland (day game):
Norm Cash clouted his 15th homer, matching the first baseman's output for the entire 1970 season, and Aurelio Rodriguez also hit for the circuit as the Tigers defeated the Indians, 5-3. Back-to-back homers by Graig Nettles and Vada Pinson in the first inning helped the Indians take a 3-1 lead, but the Tigers tied the count in the fifth and broke away when Rodriguez homered in the seventh. Cash's drive iced the game in the eighth.

Angels 7, Royals 4 at Kansas City (day game):
Jim Fregosi drove in three runs with a homer and Alex Johnson accounted for two with a single and homer to lead the Angels to a 7-4 victory over the Royals. Fregosi hit for the circuit in the second inning after a line drive by Sandy Alomar hit Mike Hedlund on the kneecap and forced the Royals' starter to yield the mound to Jim York. Johnson, who had plated a run with a single in the first, broke a 4-4 tie with his homer in the sixth.

A's 2, Brewers 0 at Milwaukee (day game):
The hitless relief pitching of Darold Knowles, after Blue Moon Odom ran into trouble in the sixth inning, enabled the Athletics to defeat the Brewers, 2-0. Johnny Briggs singled in the fourth, but that was the Brewers' only hit until the sixth when Dave May beat out a bunt to load the bases after Bill Parsons and Tommy Harper had walked. Knowles put down that threat brilliantly, striking out Briggs, getting Bill Voss on a short fly and retiring Frank Tepedino on a grounder. The A's scored in the first on a walk to Angel Mangual and double by Dave Duncan, then subsided until the ninth when Reggie Jackson smashed a homer.

Twins 2, White Sox 1 at Minnesota (day game):
Saved from defeat when Tony Oliva homered in the ninth inning, the Twins went on to edge the White Sox, 2-1, on a bases-loaded single by George Mitterwald in the 10th. Rod Carew singled to pave the way for the winning run. Harmon Killebrew popped up and Oliva forced Carew, but Mike Andrews threw wildly, trying for a double play, and Oliva reached second. An intentional pass to Leo Cardenas and another walk to Rich Reese then loaded the bases for Mitterwald's single, which extended the Twins' winning streak to six games.

Senators 2, Red Sox 0 at Washington (night game):
Jackie Brown, making his first start for the Senators since his recall from Denver (American Association), combined with Casey Cox on a six-hitter and shut out the Red Sox, 2-0. Brown allowed five hits in 7 1/3 innings. The Senators scored in the first inning on a single by Del Unser and triple by Don Mincher. Their other run followed in the seventh on a single by Tommy McCraw, a stolen base and a single by Dick Billings.

Cubs 7, Cardinals 1 at Chicago (day game):
Joe Pepitone poked four straight hits, giving him seven in succession over two games, as the Cubs defeated the Cardinals, 7-1. Ron Santo drove in four runs -- one with an infield out in the fourth inning and three with a homer in the sixth. Glenn Beckert opened the sixth with his first circuit clout of the season and Billy Williams and Pepitone followed with singles before Santo smashed his round-tripper.

Braves 9, Reds 3 at Cincinnati (day game):
After their first 10 batters went down in succession, the Braves erupted for four runs in the fourth inning and five in the fifth to defeat the Reds, 9-3. Ralph Garr singled for the first of five hits off Ross Grimsley in the fourth. The Braves kayoed the Reds' starter in the fifth and capped their scoring with a two-run homer by Marty Perez off Jim Merritt. The homer was the first of the rookie shortstop's major league career.

Dodgers 4, Astros 0 at Los Angeles (night game):
Don Sutton gave up a double by Jim Wynn in the sixth inning for the only hit off his deliveries while pitching the Dodgers to a 4-0 victory over the Astros. After Wynn broke Sutton's spell, the Dodgers erupted for all their runs in the home half of the sixth on a single by Bill Buckner, double by Willie Davis and singles by Dick Allen, Wes Parker and Jim Lefebrve, plus forceouts by Manny Mota and Bobby Valentine.

Mets 6, Phillies 5 at New York (day game):
Playing before a Helmet Day crowd of 52,171, the Mets came from behind twice and then beat the Phillies, 6-5, when Donn Clendenon smashed a homer with two out in the 15th inning. The Mets trailed, 4-1, before rallying to tie the score in the sixth. The Phillies took the lead again with an unearned run in the 14th, but Ken Singleton homered in the Mets' half to keep the game going long enough for Clendenon to win it.

Expos 10, Pirates 1 at Pittsburgh (day game):
Carl Morton was rapped for 10 hits, but nine of them were singles, as the Expos' righthander pitched the route and defeated the Pirates, 10-1. Al Oliver doubled for the Pirates' only extra-base blow. The Expos, on the other hand, had a two-run homer by Ron Fairly and triples by Rusty Staub and Bob Bailey among their 14 hits. Fairly also hit a sacrifice fly for the third RBI.

Giants 7, Padres 4 at San Francisco (day game):
Jerry Johnson, who replaced Gaylord Perry with two out in the sixth inning and allowed only one hit the rest of the way, was the winner in relief for the second straight day when the Giants defeated the Padres, 7-4. The Giants held a 4-1 lead before the Padres scored three unearned runs off Perry in the sixth with the aid of errors by Hal Lanier and Willie Mays. In the Giants' half of the sixth, Chris Speier reached second when Leron Lee dropped his fly ball and Mays singled to break the tie.
