Today's scores and summaries:

Angels 5, Red Sox 3 at California (night game):
The Angels snapped Bill Lee's six-game winning streak, rapping the lefthander for five runs in the third inning to post a 5-3 victory over the Red Sox. John Balaz and Ike Hampton singled and Dave Collins walked to start the Angels' outburst. Jerry Remy knocked in two runs with a double and Leroy Stanton plated two more with a single.

White Sox 6, Indians 4 at Chicago (night game):
With help from Dave Hamilton in relief, Jim Kaat gained his 17th victory when the White Sox defeated the Indians, 6-4. Hamilton, after replacing Kaat with two men on base and one out in the eighth inning, retired Charlie Spikes on a fly. Duane Kuiper, running for Rico Carty, then attempted to steal home on a delayed double steal and was thrown out. The White Sox scored three runs in the second, two crossing the plate on a triple by Pat Kelly, but the Indians went ahead, 4-3, with the aid of a homer by Carty. The White Sox came back with a homer by Kelly and doubles by Jorge Orta and Deron Johnson to take the lead in the seventh. After Hamilton's rescue act in the eighth, Bill Stein provided an insurance run with a circuit clout in the White Sox half.

A's 5, Yankees 1 at Oakland (day game):
The Athletics broke a tight game apart with four runs in the eighth inning and defeated the Yankees, 5-1. Phil Garner walked to open the stanza and gave way on the paths to Matt Alexander, who took second on a sacrifice by Bert Campaneris and scored on a single by Bill North to break a 1-1 tie. North advanced to second on a fumble of his hit by Rich Coggins and also scored when Fred Stanley threw wildly on an infield hit by Claudell Washington. A single by Gene Tenace drove in Washington. Tenace then counted the last run on a double by Sal Bando and a wild pitch.

Braves 6, Cardinals 4 at Atlanta (night game):
A three-run homer by Dave May in the first inning opened the Braves' attack in a 6-4 victory over the Cardinals. After the Braves added a tally in the third, Vic Correll homered in the fourth. Phil Niekro followed with the first triple of his major league career and scored on a single by Rowland Office. Willie Davis and Reggie Smith hit homers for the Cardinals, who wasted many of their scoring opportunities, leaving 14 men on base.

Reds 6, Pirates 1 at Cincinnati (night game):
George Foster hit two homers and drove in five of the Reds' runs in a 6-1 victory over the Pirates. Singles by Ken Griffey and Johnny Bench preceded Foster's first smash of the game in the fourth inning. The Reds' outfielder then connected for the circuit again after a single by Tony Perez in the sixth. Manny Sanguillen homered for the Pirates' run.

Cubs 5, Astros 3 at Houston (night game):
Using squeeze bunts as a scoring weapon, the Cubs broke a 2-2 tie with two runs in the fourth inning and defeated the Astros, 5-3. Jose Cardenal singled to open the stanza and took third on a single by Pete LaCock, who advanced to second on the throw. Rob Sperring then bunted and Cardenal beat the throw home. Steve Swisher followed with another bunt that went for a hit, scoring LaCock.

Giants 9, Expos 2 at Montreal (night game):
Dave Rader smashed a three-run homer and Jim Barr helped himself at bat with a two-run double while pitching the Giants to a 9-2 victory over the Expos, who suffered their sixth straight defeat. Willie Montanez and Chris Speier were on base with singles when Rader rapped his round-tripper in the second inning.
