Today's scores and summaries:

Royals 13, Red Sox 9 at Boston (day game):
In the most productive game of his major league career, John Mayberry batted in six runs and tied the Royals' club record in a 13-9 victory over the Red Sox. Mayberry hit a homer and two doubles. Amos Otis and Cookie Rojas also rapped round-trippers for the Royals, Rojas' blow coming with two men on base. Tommy Harper and Rico Petrocelli had homers for the Red Sox, who were in contention until the Royals clinched the game in the ninth with two runs on Mayberry's circuit clout and their final tally on doubles by Rojas and Freddie Patek.

Indians 1, Angels 0 at California (night game):
Vince Colbert pitched a shutout for his first victory with the Indians this season and beat the Angels, 1-0. Clyde Wright was the loser of the duel when the Indians scored in the fourth inning on a single by Ray Fosse and double by Graig Nettles.

Yankees 8, White Sox 1 at New York (night game):
The Yankees combined the slugging of Bobby Murcer and Horace Clarke, the pitching of Fritz Peterson and five double plays to post an 8-1 victory over the White Sox. Murcer smashed a three-run homer off former Yankee Stan Bahnsen in the third inning and Clarke hit a similar blow off reliever Steve Kealey in the eighth.

Cubs 10, Padres 1 at Chicago (day game):
Observing his 34th birthday, Billy Williams hit two homers and drove in three runs to lead the Cubs' attack in a 10-1 victory over the Padres. Williams' first homer, after a walk to Glenn Beckert, ignited a six-run outburst in the fourth inning. After Williams connected again in the fifth, the Cubs added two more runs. Jim Hickman singled and scored on a triple by Jose Cardenal. Ron Santo was hit by a pitch, and Cardenal then stole home in a double steal with Santo.

[DH] Pirates 4, Giants 1 (night game) / Pirates 9, Giants 7 at Pittsburgh (night game):
The Pirates, after winning the first game, 4-1, outslugged the Giants in the second game, 9-7, to complete the sweep of a twi-night doubleheader. Nelson Briles, who allowed six hits, was the winner of the opener with help from Dave Giusti, who retired the last two batters. The Pirates used a walk to Richie Hebner and doubles by Milt May and Gene Alley for two runs in the fourth inning and added their other pair in the fifth on another pass to Hebner, a triple by Willie Stargell and sacrifice fly by Bob Roberston. Al Oliver and Robertson each drove in three runs to pace the Pirates in the nightcap. Robertson had gone 0-for-21 before breaking his slump with three singles. Oliver also had three hits, including a homer. Ed Goodson homered for the Giants. The Pirates chalked up what proved to be their winning margin when Gene Clines doubled, Manny Sanguillen tripled and Robertson singled in the seventh inning.
