Today's scores and summaries:

Orioles 8, Indians 3 at Cleveland (night game):
Three-run homers by Brooks Robinson and Lee May provided the power for the Orioles, who defeated the Indians, 8-3. Robinson belted his drive in the fourth inning. The Orioles added their other runs in the fifth. A walk to Mark Belanger, single by Ken Singleton and errors on grounders by Paul Blair and Al Bumbry accounted for two tallies and resulted in the removal of Jim Bibby. Don Hood relieved and on his first pitch, May smashed a homer for three more runs. The Indians had a circuit clout by George Hendrick among their 9 hits off Jim Palmer, who gained his 11th victory.

Red Sox 6, Tigers 2 at Detroit (night game):
Sparked by Juan Beniquez, who led off with a triple, the Red Sox scored four runs in the 12th inning and defeated the Tigers, 6-2. Mickey Lolich, who started for the Tigers, pitched nine innings without striking out at least one batter for the first time in his career. John Wockenfuss homered for the Tigers in the third. Jim Rice singled for the Red Sox in the fourth and scored with two out on a single by Dwight Evans. Tom Walker replaced Lolich in the 10th and gave up a homer by Rice, but the Tigers chased Jim Burton in their half and tied the score with singles by Mickey Stanley and Tom Veryzer around a sacrifice by Wockenfuss. Reggie Cleveland relieved and was the winner on an outburst in the 12th. After his triple, Beniquez scored on a sacrifice fly by Rick Burleson. Singles by Carl Yastrzemski and Rice and a hit batsman then loaded the bases and the Red Sox added their three other runs on a double by Rico Petrocelli and squeeze bunt by Rick Miller. Fred Lynn went hitless in five trips and was stopped on his 20-game batting streak.

Twins 7, A's 6 at Minnesota (night game):
Larry Hisle, who homered with a man on base in the first inning, capped a three-run rally with a single in the ninth to bring the Twins a 7-6 victory over the Athletics. Dan Ford also homered with a mate aboard in the fifth to put the Twins ahead, 4-3, but Phil Garner tied the score with a circuit clout in the seventh and the A's powered their way in front with back-to-back blows by Reggie Jackson and Gene Tenace in the eighth. Steve Braun homered to ignite a Twins' rally in the ninth. Tom Kelly, Danny Walton and Ford followed with singles for the tying run. Then, after a pass to Rod Carew loaded the bases, Hisle delivered his winning hit.

Yankees 10, Brewers 7 at New York (night game):
A pair of five-run innings carried the Yankees to a 10-7 victory over the Brewers, who lost despite a grand-slam homer by Gorman Thomas. The Yankees went on their first scoring outburst in the second inning with five runs on four singles and three walks, including two with the bases loaded. Thomas hit his homer off Rudy May in the fourth after Hank Aaron and Charlie Moore had singled and Tommy Bianco had walked to load the bases. The Brewers went ahead with two more runs in the fifth, but the Yankees broke away with their second five-run inning in the sixth. Kerry Dineen and Walt Williams singled and both raced home on a double by Ron Blomberg. Thurman Munson walked and Graig Nettles then climaxed the scoring with a three-run homer.

Cubs 9, Phillies 7 at Chicago (day game):
Tim Hosley hit a home run leading off in the eighth inning and the Cubs scored three more runs with five successive singles in a rally that produced a 9-7 triumph over the Phillies. Steve Carlton, staked to a 5-1 lead, yielded back-to-back homers by Andre Thornton and Manny Trillo in the sixth and the Cubs tied the score in the seventh when Jerry Morales hit a two-run homer off reliever Gene Garber. The Phillies took an early lead on a two-run homer by Tommy Hutton in the fourth and three-run outburst in the sixth, climaxed by Tony Taylor's two-run triple.

Reds 9, Braves 2 at Cincinnati (night game):
A six-run splurge in the eighth inning, climaxed by Joe Morgan's two-run homer, clinched the Reds' 9-2 victory over the Braves. Don Gullett limited the Braves to seven hits in 8 2/3 innings to post his fifth victory in succession, but suffered a fracture of his left thumb when struck by a liner off the bat of Larvell Blanks in the ninth. Cito Gaston homered for the Braves in the fourth.

Dodgers 4, Astros 2 at Los Angeles (night game):
With the Astros leading, 2-1, in the seventh inning, Steve Garvey hit a two-run homer that cleared the center field fence as the Dodgers went on to win, 4-2. The triumph, only the second in seven games for the Dodgers, made Don Sutton the first 11-game winner in the National League. A two-run homer by Cesar Cedeno in the third gave the Astros the lead after Willie Crawford homered for the Dodgers in the second.

Pirates 10, Cardinals 4 at Pittsburgh (night game):
Rennie Stennett, Willie Stargell and Al Oliver hit home runs in the Pirates' 15-hit attack on Ron Bryant and four relievers that buried the Cardinals, 10-4. Bryant, making his first start for the Redbirds, was tagged for a two-run homer by Stargell in the first and three-run blow by Stennett in the second. Bob Gibson, making his first relief appearance for the Cardinals after 303 consecutive starts, yielded a solo homer to Oliver in the fifth.

Padres 7, Giants 1 at San Francisco (day game):
Rich Folkers won his second straight game as a starter and delivered a two-run single in a six-run, sixth inning outburst to lead the Padres past the Giants, 7-1. The victory lifted the Padres into third place in the National League West, the highest position in club history for this date, and extended the Giants' losing streak to six games.
