Today's scores and summaries:
Red Sox 8, Yankees 2 at Boston (night game):
After allowing two runs in the first inning, Luis Tiant settled down and pitched the Red Sox to an 8-2 victory over the Yankees, marking the 21st time that the veteran righthander had beaten the New York club in 30 career decisions. The Red Sox quickly put Tiant on the road to triumph by exploding for six runs in the second. Cecil Cooper and Jim Rice each drove in two runs with singles during the outburst.
Brewers 6, Tigers 2 at Detroit (night game):
Don Money and Robin Yount drove in two runs apiece as the Brewers defeated the Tigers, 6-2, for Bill Travers' fourth straight victory. Money accounted for his RBIs with a triple and homer, while Yount hit a pair of sacrifice flies.
Astros 5, Reds 3 at Houston (night game):
Jose Cruz and Cliff Johnson walked with the bases loaded in the seventh inning to give the Astros two runs for a 5-3 victory over the Reds. Santo Alcala, a previous winner of five straight decisions, gave up singles by Larry Dierker and Cesar Cedeno and passed Bob Watson to load the bases before walking Cruz to force in the run that broke a 3-3 tie. Alcala then went to a full count on Johnson before being replaced by Rawly Eastwick, who issued the fourth ball to force in the extra marker.
Dodgers 3, Giants 2 at Los Angeles (night game):
A single by Bill Russell with the bases loaded in the 10th inning enabled the Dodgers to edge the Giants, 3-2, and gave reliever Charlie Hough his seventh victory without a defeat this season. Ron Cey led off the stanza with a single and moved up on a sacrifice. After an intentional pass to Dusty Baker, pinch-hitter Manny Mota was safe on an error to fillthe sacks for Russell's game-winning hit off Gary Lavelle.
Expos 7, Pirates 1 at Montreal (night game):
Don Stanhouse collected his first victory as a starter and his first complete game since 1973 by pitching the Expos to a 7-1 victory over the Pirates. Stanhouse, who was with the Rangers in 1973, settled his own decision by driving in two runs with a single in the second inning. The other runs for the Expos, who broke a six-game losing streak, included homers by Barry Foote and Gary Carter.
Cubs 2, Mets 1 at New York (day game):
Dooming himself with a wild pitch, Mickey Lolich was the loser when the Cubs defeated the Mets, 2-1. Ray Burris, who ended his personal five-game losing streak as the Cubs' winner, singled and scored their first run in the third inning. The Mets, who suffered their 11th loss in 13 games, tied the score in the fifth on a double by Wayne Garrett and single by Ed Kranepool. Dave Rosello singled with one out in the Cubs' seventh and was forced by Larry Biittner, but Lolich then uncorked a wild pitch to allow Biittner to take second and Mick Kelleher followed with a single for the winning run.
Cardinals 7, Phillies 1 at St. Louis (night game):
The Phillies' string of 13 straight victories in road games was halted by the Cardinals, 7-1. Bob Forsch, starting for the 11th time, achieved his first victory of the season, scattering seven hits. Larry Christenson, who had won five games in a row, absorbed the loss. The Phils committed four errors as compared with their previous total of only 26 for the first 43 games of the year.
