Today's scores and summaries:

Rangers 6, White Sox 5 at Chicago (night game):
Hitless in six previous trips, Lenny Randle doubled with two out in the 16th inning and scored Gene Clines to give the Rangers a 6-5 victory over the White Sox. Jim Sundberg opened the stanza with a single and was forced by Clines, who stole second to be in position to score on Randle's hit.

[DH] Tigers 8, Brewers 7 (night game) / Tigers 6, Brewers 5 at Detroit (night game):
In games that wound up with John Hiller winning twice and Eduardo Rodriguez losing twice, the Tigers defeated the Brewers in a twi-night doubleheader, 8-7 and 6-5. The Tigers rallied for three runs in the ninth inning to win the opener. A single by Willie Horton, pass to Alex Johnson and single by Jason Thompson loaded the bases and brought Rodriguez to the mound in relief of Ray Sadecki. Aurelio Rodriguez was safe on an error by Robin Yount, allowing one run to score, and another counted on a bases-loaded pass to Bruce Kimm. After a suicide squeeze play by Jerry Manuel backfired and Thompson was out at the plate, Rodriguez uncorked a wild pitch, allowing the Tigers' winning run. In the nightcap, the Tigers came from behind with two runs in the ninth. Dan Meyer led off with his fourth hit and second double of the game and scored one out later on a sacrifice fly by Horton before Ben Oglivie came to the plate and smashed a homer.

Angels 6, Twins 4 at Minnesota (night game):
Snapping a personal five-game losing streak, Nolan Ryan pitched the Angels to a 6-4 victory over the Twins. Ryan was rapped for homers by Craig Kusick and Larry Hisle, but managed to come out on the winning side for the first time since May 1.

Royals 5, A's 2 at Oakland (day game):
Amos Otis drove in two runs with a homer in the third inning and another run with a single in the ninth to produce the Royals' winning margin in a 5-2 victory over the Athletics. Don Baylor and Sal Bando homered for the A's markers.

Braves 9, Padres 1 at Atlanta (night game):
Knocked out by the Astros in the first inning May 30, Roger Moret came back after one day and pitched the Braves to a 9-1 victory over the Padres. Moret gave up a run in the first inning, but Earl Williams put him on the winning track by smashing a homer with two men on base in the Braves' half of the stanza.

Astros 2, Reds 1 at Houston (night game):
Joaquin Andujar, formerly in the Reds' organization, gained his first major league victory and Pat Zachry suffered his first major league loss as the Astros defeated the Reds, 2-1. Andujar allowed only two hits. Triples by Roger Metzger and Rob Andrews led to the Astros' runs.

Giants 6, Dodgers 0 at Los Angeles (night game):
Ed Halicki snapped a personal six-game losing streak by allowing only two hits and pitching the Giants to a 6-0 victory over the Dodgers.

Cardinals 6, Expos 2 at Montreal (night game):
After failing to drive in a run since May 19, Ted Simmons knocked three across the plate with a homer and single to help the Cardinals defeat the Expos, 6-2. Ken Rudolph also aided in the Cards' attack with a two-run double.

Pirates 3, Mets 2 at New York (night game):
Winless since May 7, John Candelaria bore down, allowed six hits and pitched the Pirates to a 3-2 victory over the Mets. Joe Torre accounted for the Mets' runs with a pair of homers. The Pirates had a two-run shot by Bob Robertson for his first homer of the year in the fourth inning and added what proved to be the deciding run in the sixth when Bill Robinson doubled and Richie Zisk singled.

Phillies 6, Cubs 1 at Philadelphia (night game):
Ron Reed, making his first start of the season after 14 relief appearances, pitched the Phillies to a 6-1 victory over the Cubs in a game stopped by rain with one out in the home half of the sixth inning. The Cubs counted in the first on a single by Jose Cardenal and double by Larry Biittner, but Reed drove in two runs himself with a single and a safe squeeze bunt and Greg Luzinski homered with a man on base.
