Today's scores and summaries:

Rangers 6, Orioles 4 at Baltimore (night game):
The Rangers outlasted the Orioles, 6-4, with Gene Clines driving in two runs and scoring another. Mike Cuellar, making his first relief appearance in eight seasons with the Orioles, yielded three hits in the last 3 2/3 innings and threw a wild pitch that gave the Rangers their sixth run.

Twins 7, Indians 2 at Cleveland (night game):
Butch Wynegar lined into the first triple play of the major league season in the fifth inning, then hit a two-run homer in the eighth as the Twins beat the Indians, 7-2. With runners at first and second bases in the fifth Wynegar lined to reliever Stan Thomas who threw to Frank Duffy, doubling Larry Hisle. Duffy's relay caught Dan Ford off first.

Royals 10, Tigers 0 at Kansas City (night game):
Frank White drove in five runs with a triple and single and Hal McRae had four hits, including a homer, in the Royals' 10-0 rout of the Tigers. Steve Busby pitched six innings for his first victory since May 1.

Cardinals 7, Astros 6 at Houston (night game):
Mike Tyson, who had singled and advanced to third on a single by Jerry Mumphrey, scored the winning run on a wild pitch by Gene Pentz in the eighth inning when the Cardinals downed the Astros, 7-6. Roger Metzger's error led to five unearned runs for the Cardinals in the first.

Phillies 8, Dodgers 6 at Los Angeles (night game):
The Phillies downed the Dodgers, 8-6, and handed reliever Charlie Hough his first defeat after seven victories. With the score tied, 5-5, the Phillies scored two runs in the sixth when Hough was nicked for a single by Larry Bowa and a double by Ron Reed and issued three walks, one with the bases full.

Pirates 5, Reds 4 at Pittsburgh (night game):
A major league record-tying seven homers, all coming with the bases empty, marked the Pirates' 5-4 victory over the Reds. Pinch-hitter Richie Zisk decided the issue with a solo clout in the eighth. Al Oliver, Willie Stargell and Bill Robinson also homered for the Pirates. Joe Morgan hit two homers and Pete Rose one for the Reds. The record for most homers by both clubs with none on base in a nine-inning game was last accomplished June 18, 1974, when the White Sox beat the Indians, 5-2.

Padres 5, Mets 1 at San Diego (night game):
Alan Foster pitched the Padres to a 5-1 triumph over the Mets, allowing only four hits in his first victory since June 1, 1975, and first complete game since May 20, 1975. Dave Winfield hit a three-run homer in the eighth.
