Today's scores and summaries:

White Sox 9, Red Sox 2 at Boston (night game):
Former Red Sox player Deron Johnson, signed this spring by the White Sox after his Boston release, broke a scoreless tie with a leadoff homer in the fourth. Chicago went on to defeat the Red Sox, 9-2. The White Sox got two more off loser Bill Lee in the fourth, one when he made a wild pickoff throw following a single by Bill Stein and the other on a double by Buddy Bradford, who reached third on an error, and Brian Downing's single. The Red Sox reached winner Stan Bahnsen for single runs in the fourth and fifth, but Bucky Dent singled home Bob Coluccio, who had doubled, in the seventh. Chicago tacked on five more in the ninth to break the game open. Dent singled in one run on the heels of a triple by Coluccio.

Brewers 6, A's 3 at Oakland (night game):
George Scott pounded a two-run, game-tying homer in the sixth and the Brewers scored three more late runs to turn back the Athletics and Vida Blue and make a winner of reliever Bill Castro for the first time in the majors, 6-3. Oakland grabbed a 3-1 lead off starter Ed Sprague, scoring single runs in each of the first three frames, but Castro shut them out the rest of the way. Following Scott's equalizer, Kurt Bevacqua doubled and scored on Robin Yount's single in the eighth. Milwaukee knocked out Blue, who was trying to become the majors' first 10-game winner, with two insurance runs in the ninth.

Expos 5, Dodgers 3 at Montreal (night game):
Woodie Fryman spotted the Dodgers a 2-0 lead in the first, one run scoring on a wild pitch, but settled down on the hill. The veteran hurler contributed an RBI double and went the route as the Expos turned back Los Angeles, 5-3. A walk to Tim Foli, two groundouts, a balk by loser Doug Rau and single by Larry Parrish around a pass to Gary Carter tied the score in the home half of the first. Carter, Bob Bailey and Larry Lintz, the latter a replacement when second baseman Pete Mackanin sprained an ankle, all hit singles in the third to give Montreal a 3-2 lead. Doubles by Mike Jorgensen and Fryman increased the lead to 4-2 in the fourth. Fryman then moved to third on Pepe Mangual's single and scored on a squeeze bunt by Foli. A two-base error by Parrish and Tom oPaciorek's single produced the final Dodger run in ninth.

Mets 2, Astros 0 at New York (night game):
Jon Matlack, the 1974 N. L. shutout leader with seven, picked up his first whitewash of the season as the Mets blanked the Astros, 2-0. New York's runs came in the second when Rusty Staub beat out an infield hit, Dave Kingman tripled and Jerry Grote followed with a sacrifice fly. Matlack held the Astros to four hits, escaping the only serious jam in the fourth when he struck out Enos Cabell and got Doug Rader on a pop fly after Cesar Cedeno led off with a single, stole second and moved to third on an infield out.

Phillies 5, Padres 1 at Philadelphia (night game):
The Phillies subdued the Padres, 5-1, behind the five-hit hurling of Steve Carlton and hitting by Mike Schmidt, who drove in three runs with a single and homer. The winners scored once in the first off loser Dave Freisleben on Dave Cash's single, a double by Schmidt and an infield out. Schmidt, batting .181 entering the game, made it 3-0 in the third, hitting his seventh homer of the season after a double by Cash. That duo produced the fourth Philly run in the seventh when Cash singled, went to third on a wild pickoff throw by reliever Danny Frisella and scored on Schmidt's single. The Padres' only run came in top of the frame on a double by Tito Fuentes and single by Randy Hundley. Mike Anderson closed out the scoring with a solo homer in the eighth.

Cardinals 1, Braves 0 at St. Louis (night game):
Lynn McGlothen turned in a four-hit performance and batterymate Ted Simmons singled home the game's only run as the Cardinals edged the Braves, 1-0. St. Louis scored in the fourth. Ted Sizemore, at first base after hitting into a force play, moved to second when Reggie Smith walked. Simmons singled to right, scoring Sizemore, but was out trying to stretch the hit into a double. All Atlanta hits off McGlothen were singles. The righthander set down 15 Braves in succession during one stretch. Loser Carl Morton, touched for six singles in seven frames, dropped his sixth straight decision.
