Today's scores and summaries:

Red Sox 9, Brewers 7 at Boston (night game):
Rookies Fred Lynn and Jim Rice each collected his 100th RBI and Dwight Evans drove in four more to lead the Red Sox past the Brewers, 9-7. Boston scored four times in the first and second frames, Evans driving in a pair in each inning. The Brewers, who knocked out winner Roger Moret in the seventh, got solo homers from Robin Yount and George Scott, while making it close with four runs in the final three innings.

Royals 3, White Sox 2 at Kansas City (night game):
John Mayberry increased his league-leading RBI total to 103 with a two-out, run-scoring single in the ninth which gave the Royals a 3-2 nod over the White Sox. Mayberry delivered after loser Claude Osteen walked Frank White, Jim Wohlford sacrificed, reliever Rich Gossage struck out Amos Otis and purposely passed George Brett.

Twins 7, Angels 6 at Minnesota (night game):
Glenn Borgmann's 12th-inning double scored Steve Braun, who had singled, as the Twins nipped the Angels, 7-6. California took a 6-5 lead in the top of the 10th on Bruce Bochte's fifth hit of the game, a single which scored Mickey Rivers. Minnesota's Johnny Briggs singled home Braun to knot the count in the bottom of the 10th. In the ninth, the Twins got two to send the game into extra innings on back-to-back RBI singles by Rod Carew and Dan Ford.

[DH] Cubs 6, Pirates 5 (day game) / Pirates 9, Cubs 1 at Chicago (day game):
After the Cubs scored twice in the ninth to win the opener, 6-5, the Pirates bounced back with seven doubles and a two-run homer by Richie Zisk to salvage a twin-bill split with a 9-1 victory. Jerry Morales and Jose Cardenal each doubled home a run in the final frame of the first game after Pittsburgh had tallied three in the top of the inning to take a 5-4 lead, getting two runs on Bob Robertson's pinch-single. In the second game, Jim Rooker stopped the Cubs on two hits, retiring the last 16 Chicago batters in order. Zisk homered in a three-run fourth. Dave Parker collected three doubles in the game and drove in two runs.

Dodgers 5, Padres 4 at Los Angeles (night game):
Willie Crawford's three-run homer in a four-run eighth inning brought the Dodgers from behind for a 5-4 triumph over the Padres and gave Burt Hooton a club record-equaling 11th straight victory. Hooton had served up a three-run homer to Willie McCovey in the top of the inning which gave San Diego a 4-1 advantage. Steve Yeager's infield out with the bases loaded made it 4-2 in the bottom of the inning, setting the stage for Crawford, who had entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the seventh.

Mets 3, Expos 2 at New York (night game):
Mike Vail extended his hitting streak to 23 games, tying the modern N. L. record for a rookie, driving home two runs as the Mets nipped the Expos, 3-2. Vail accounted for the deciding tally with an eighth-inning single which scored pinch-runner Gene Clines to snap a 2-2 tie. The Expos scored both their runs in the second. Vail singled home the first New York run in the sixth and the Mets tied the score in the seventh on throwing errors by Larry Parrish and Mike Jorgensen, plus a wild pitch.

Braves 12, Giants 0 at San Francisco (night game):
The Braves, cracking 17 hits off five Giant pitchers, coasted to a 12-0 triumph behind Jamie Easterly, who went seven frames before a blister on his pitching hand led to his replacement. Dusty Baker drove in five runs with a triple, two doubles and a single, while Darrell Evans plated three more with two doubles and a single. The second smallest crowd in San Francisco history, 851, watched the contest.

Cardinals 7, Phillies 6 at St. Louis (night game):
Reggie Smith's RBI pinch-double in the eighth snapped a tie to give the Cardinals a 7-6 victory over the Phillies. Ken Reitz and Ted Sizemore singled ahead of Smith's game decider, which scored pinch-runner Larry Lintz. Dick Allen socked a three-run homer in the first, but the Cards matched that in the bottom of the frame. Mike Schmidt put the visitors back ahead with a two-run double in the fifth, but St. Louis tallied three times in the sixth, Bake McBride singling home the go-ahead run. Garry Maddox' sacrifice fly plated Mike Anderson with the tying run for the Phils in the seventh.
