Today's scores and summaries:

Orioles 3, White Sox 2 at Baltimore (night game):
Don Baylor's one-out triple in the ninth scored Bobby Grich from first to give the Orioles a 3-2 victory over the White Sox. Grich had reached first on a single and scored when Baylor's line drive whistled up the right-center alley to give pitcher Mike Torrez his fifth triumph in six decisions. The Sox took a 1-0 lead on Pat Kelly's homer in the opening frame. A pair of walks and Jorge Orta's run-scoring single made it 2-0 in the fifth. The Orioles tied the contest in the seventh when reliever Terry Forster came on for starter Wilbur Wood. Tommy Davis drew a leadoff walk and, two outs later, scored when Baylor drove a double high off the left-field wall. Brooks Robinson's single then scored Baylor.

Yankees 4, Angels 3 at California (night game):
Off-season acquisitions Catfish Hunter and Bobby Bonds keyed the Yankees to a 10-inning, 4-3 victory over the Angels. Hunter went the route for his fourth win in his last five decisions and Bonds drove in the winning run with a sacrifice fly. The decisive rally started when pinch-hitter Rick Dempsey beat out an infield roller. Roy White followed with a single and Don Kirkwood replaced starter Andy Hassler on the mound for the Angels. Elliott Maddox drew a walk to load the bases and Bonds then lifted a fly ball to deep center to plate the winning marker. The Angels had tied game in the eighth on Joe Lahoud's two-out, two-run homer.

Royals 4, Tigers 1 at Detroit (night game):
Vada Pinson led off the game with a homer and bashed out three other hits to pace the Royals to a 4-1 victory over the Tigers. The four safeties raised Pinson's career total to 2,701 hits. His single produced a run in the second stanza and two other hits were doubles. George Brett followed Pinson's first two-bagger in the fifth with a similar hit, moved to third on Hal McRae's single and scored on a groundout. Nelson Briles was invincible until the ninth when the Tigers scored on singles by Nate Colbert, Bill Freehan and Leon Roberts, the latter's blow extending his hitting streak to 16 straight games.

Twins 3, Indians 0 at Minnesota (night game):
Rookie righthander Jim Hughes racked up his third straight victory and second consecutive complete game as the Twins defeated the Indians, 3-0. The first Twin run came on a steal of home by Rod Carew. Carew, who holds the American League record of seven steals of home for one season, notched his first such steal since August 27, 1973. The other Twin runs came on solo homers by Larry Hisle and Bobby Darwin. Gaylord Perry suffered his third straight loss and first to the Twins in six games since he came to the American League.

Brewers 3, Rangers 2 at Texas (night game):
The Rangers and Brewers battled 14 innings to a 2-2 tie before the game was halted by curfew. The start had been delayed an hour and 15 minutes by rain. Darrell Porter's bases-loaded single had given the Brewers two runs in the fourth, but the Rangers tied the contest in the sixth on doubles by Willie Davis and Jeff Burroughs and a wild pitch. Steve Foucault worked 6 1/3 hitless innings for the Rangers after relieving in the eighth. The Rangers threatened in the 10th, 11th and 12th, but could not push a run across.

Astros 11, Cubs 7 at Chicago (day game):
Doug Rader had five RBIs with two homers and Bob Watson drove in three with a sacrifice fly and his sixth homer of the campaign to lead the Astros to an 11-7 triumph over the Cubs. The Astros got off winging, scoring five runs in their first turn at bat, the inning being capped by Rader's initial circuit clout. The Cubs battled back to narrow the margin with Ron Dunn, who replaced Bill Madlock at third base after the latter had been ejected following an argument, hitting a homer and two sacrifice flies to drive in three runs. But Rader's second homer, following Watson's single and an intentional pass to Milt May in the seventh inning, put the game out of reach for the Cubs. Watson's homer in the eighth with one man on provided extra insurance.

Expos 5, Braves 4 at Montreal (night game):
The Expos rallied for three runs in the seventh inning to defeat the Braves, 5-4. With the Braves ahead, 3-2, Gary Carter doubled and Barry Foote singled. Jose Morales' pinch-hit double scored Carter to tie the game and the Expos took a one-run lead when shortstop Larvell Blanks booted Tim Foli's grounder. Pepe Mangual drove home what proved to be the winning run as he singled, scoring pinch-runner Pete Mackanin. The Braves had taken a 3-2 lead in the sixth on Cito Gaston's homer, Blanks' triple and Roric Harrison's single. Carter's homer with a mate aboard had previously given the Expos a 2-1 lead. Starter Woodie Fryman was the beneficiary of the Expos' final rally and received credit for his fourth consecutive win without a loss.

Mets 5, Giants 1 at New York (night game):
Rusty Staub and ave Kingman drove in all the runs as the Mets defeated the Giants, 5-1, handing the visitors their sixth straight loss and pitcher Mike Caldwell his fifth consecutive defeat without a win. Kingman sent the Mets off to a 2-0 lead in the first with a double that followed walks to Felix Millan and Staub. Staub's homer in the third, which was preceded by Millan's double, gave the Mets two more tallies and Staub singled home another in the seventh. The Giants' lone score came in the third on Gary Matthews' infield out following singles by Derrel Thomas and Willie Montanez. Mets' pitcher Jerry Koosman had control problems throughout the game, but never faced more than five batters in any inning and allowed only two hits over the last six frames. He was aided by four double plays.

Phillies 4, Reds 0 at Philadelphia (night game):
Steve Carlton hurled his 29th career shutout as the Phillies won from the Reds, 4-0. The first Phillie run came when Reds' pitcher Pat Darcy, attempting to pick Garry Maddox off first, threw wildly to send Maddox to third, from where he scored on Greg Luzinski's single. Mike Anderson's single, Carlton's sacrifice bunt and Larry Bowa's single produced another run in the fifth. The final two runs in the eighth came on a double by Maddox, singles by Luzinski and Tommy Hutton, a double play and infield hits by Anderson and Carlton. Dick Allen made his first appearance of the season for the Phils. He singled in his first at-bat and was 1-for-3 for the night after leaving in the sixth inning with what may have been a muscle pull.

Pirates 5, Padres 4 at Pittsburgh (night game):
Bill Robinson's single in the bottom of the 11th scored Dave Parker from second and enabled the Pirates to down the Padres, 5-4. Parker, pinch-hitting for eventual winning pitcher Sam McDowell, lashed a one-out double to set up the winning marker. After Frank Taveras struck out, Robinson stroked the winning blow. The Padres rallied to tie the game in the eighth when Dave Winfield doubled in Gene Locklear, who had walked, and Willie McCovey singled to score Winfield. The Pirates had taken a 4-2 lead in the sixth on a single by Taveras, double by Robinson, the second triple of the game by Al Oliver and a single by Willie Stargell. Oliver's first triple set up the Pirates' initial run of the game in the fourth frame and offset McCovey's homer in the top half of that inning.

Cardinals 7, Dodgers 4 at St. Louis (day game):
The Cardinals exploded for a five-run third inning and went on to post a 7-4 victory over the Dodgers. The decisive frame opened with a single by starting pitcher John Curtis and was followed by Lou Brock's single, a double by Ted Sizemore to score one run and a pass to Luis Melendez. Ted Simmons then stroked a ground-rule double, scoring two runs and sending Doug Rau, who was seeking his fifth straight win, to the showers. Ken Reitz greeted reliever Rick Rhoden with another double to send the final two tallies of the inning across the plate. The Dodgers, aided by first baseman Danny Cater's throwing error which gave them two runs, had taken an early lead. They threatened to pull game out of the fire in the seventh stanza but relievers Mike Garman and Al Hrabosky held them off to lock up the contest.
