Today's scores and summaries:

Orioles 10, Red Sox 6 at Boston (night game):
A homer by Don Baylor with two men on base in the seventh inning broke a 6-6 tie and hoisted the Orioles to a 10-6 victory over the Red Sox. Lee May singled and Paul Blair beat out an infield hit before Baylor connected for the decisive drive. The Orioles added an extra run in the eighth on a walk to Bobby Grich and double by May. Bernie Carbo hit a homer for the Red Sox.

A's 10, White Sox 1 at Chicago (night game):
Vida Blue gave up only four hits in eight innings before leaving the mound with victory assured as the Athletics handed a 10-1 knockout to the nine-game winning streak of the White Sox. Glenn Abbott finished. The A's piled up 16 hits, including three apiece by Joe Rudi and Bert Campaneris. Rudi drove in three runs. Carlos May homered for the only White Sox tally.

Tigers 6, Indians 2 at Cleveland (night game):
Mickey Lolich allowed only three hits and pitched the Tigers to a 6-2 victory, marking the 30th time that the veteran southpaw had conquered the Indians in 45 career decisions. Charlie Spikes homered for one of the Indians' runs. The Tigers broke a 2-2 tie with an unearned run in the seventh and then iced the verdict with three runs in the eighth on a double by Jack Pierce, single by Aurelio Rodriguez and homer by Ron LeFlore.

Brewers 6, Yankees 3 at Milwaukee (night game):
The streaking Brewers, who got five-hit pitching from Jim Colborn and Rick Austin, defeated the Yankees, 6-3, for their fourth straight victory and eighth in the last 10 games. It also was the Brewers' fifth in a row over the Yankees in Milwaukee. The Brewers scored twice in the first inning on a double by George Scott and single by Mike Hegan before putting the game away with four-more runs in the third. Colborn, working with a 6-1 lead, retired 18 batters in a row before the Yankees loaded the bases in the eighth and scored two runs on a double by Thurman Munson. Austin retired Chris Chambliss on a fly to end the threat and picked up his first save.

[DH] Angels 4, Twins 3 (night game) / Twins 12, Angels 3 at Minnesota (night game):
Rod Carew batted in five runs with a double, single and sacrifice fly to lead the Twins to a 12-3 victory in the second game of a twi-night doubleheader after the Angels won the first game, 4-3, on a homer by Ellie Rodriguez in the 10th inning. The Angels, who also had a circuit clout by Leroy Stanton in the opener, fell behind when Johnny Briggs accounted for all of the Twins' runs with a homer in the eighth. The Angels then tied the score in the ninth on singles by Jerry Remy and Joe Lahoud, a sacrifice and infield out by Winston Llenas. Mark Wiley, making his first major league start, was the Twins' winner in the nightcap. The Twins' attack, other than Carew's hits, included two-run homers by Steve Braun and Steve Brye.

Rangers 5, Royals 4 at Texas (night game):
Although John Mayberry hit three homers and Harmon Killebrew added one, the Royals otherwise failed to score against Fergie Jenkins and lost to the Rangers, 5-4. The Rangers, who had a circuit clout by Mike Cubbage, picked up what proved to be the winning run in the sixth inning when Jim Sundberg singled and crossed the plate on errors by Mayberry and Steve Mingori, pitching in relief of Steve Busby.

Reds 8, Astros 7 at Cincinnati (night game):
Ending their longest game of the season, the Reds scored on a walk to Pete Rose and singles by Ken Griffey and Joe Morgan in the 15th inning to defeat the Astros, 8-7. The Reds' record string of errorless games came to an end in the fifth when Dan Driessen, playing left field, bobbled a single by Bob Watson, allowing the Astros' batter to take an extra base. Watson and Cliff Johnson drove in three runs apiece for the Astros, with each having a homer. The Reds, after trailing, picked up a run on a homer by Morgan in the eighth and tied the score in the ninth with an error, walk, double by Cesar Geronimo, another walk and sacrifice flies by Griffey and Johnny Bench.

Padres 10, Dodgers 1 at Los Angeles (night game):
Mike Ivie hit the first grand slam of his major league career in the fifth inning as the Padres exploded for eight runs to defeat the Dodgers, 10-1, in a game that later erupted into a brawl. Dodger reliever Charlie Hough hit Dave Winfield with a pitch in the eighth. After the Dodgers came to bat, Padre reliever Bill Greif decked Willie Crawford, setting off the fight. Joe Ferguson, who plunged into the fray, suffered a fracture of his right wrist. Crawford, Ferguson and Davey Lopes were ejected from the game.

Pirates 10, Expos 4 at Montreal (night game):
It was Dominion Day in Canada, but the Pirates did the dominating, walloping the Expos, 10-4, with a 17-hit attack that included a triple and two singles by Manny Sanguillen, a double and two singles by Al Oliver and three singles by Bill Robinson. Gary Carter had the most potent of the Expos' eight hits, smashing a homer with a man on base.

Cubs 5, Mets 4 at New York (night game):
Jerry Morales singled in the 10th inning and batted in his third run of the game to bring the Cubs a 5-4 victory over the Mets. Morales' first two RBIs and a two-run homer by Andre Thornton gave the Cubs a 4-0 lead, but the Mets battled back to tie the score before a walk to Don Kessinger, a stolen base, infield out and Morales' single pushed over the Cubs' winning run in the 10th.

Cardinals 6, Phillies 5 at Philadelphia (night game):
An intentional pass to Reggie Smith in the fifth inning backfired on the Phillies when the Cardinals scored four runs to enable them to gain a 6-5 victory. Greg Luzinski homered for the Phillies in the fourth to tie the score at 2-2 before the Cards opened the fifth with a single by Ted Sizemore and double by Willie Davis. Wayne Twitchell then walked Smith intentionally and also passed Ted Simmons to force in one run. Bake McBride singled for two more and Ken Reitz capped the outburst with a sacrifice fly. The Phillies narrowed their deficit against Lynn McGlothen, but for the second straight night Al Hrabosky stepped in to save the game for the Cardinals.

Giants 9, Braves 1 at San Francisco (night game):
Hitting a pair of doubles, Chris Speier drove in five runs as the Giants defeated the Braves, 9-1. Speier came up with the bases loaded in the first inning and cleared the sacks with a double, before scoring himself on an error. His second double produced two of the Giants' five runs in the fourth. The Braves committed six errors.
