Today's scores and summaries:

A's 8, Red Sox 5 at Boston (night game):
Going into the eighth inning on the short end of a 5-2 score, the Athletics erupted for six runs and defeated the Red Sox, 8-5. A single by Bert Campaneris, double by Don Baylor and single by Joe Rudi produced the first two runs in the rally. After Matt Alexander, running for Rudi, was thrown out stealing, the A's resumed their attack with a double by Sal Bando, who scored on a two-base throwing error by Steve Dillard. Following an intentional pass to Billy Williams, Phil Garner doubled to drive in one run and Tim Hosley also doubled to add the final pair of tallies.

Royals 7, Orioles 0 at Kansas City (night game):
Amos Otis and John Mayberry each homered with a man on base in the seventh inning to climax the Royals' scoring in a 7-0 victory over the Orioles. Paul Splittorff pitched the shutout, handing the Orioles their sixth straight loss.

White Sox 12, Brewers 5 at Milwaukee (day game):
With run-producing support from Buddy Bradford and Jim Spencer, Francisco Barrios observed his 23rd birthday by making his first major league start and pitching the White Sox to a 12-5 victory over the Brewers. Bradford smashed a three-run homer and accounted for another RBI with an infield out, in addition to hitting a triple. Spencer homered with a man on base and drove in a third run with a single. The Brewers joined in the slugging with homers by Jimmy Rosario, George Scott and Don Money, accounting for all their runs. Rosario's homer was his first in the major leagues.

Angels 2, Yankees 0 at New York (night game):
The six-hit pitching of Frank Tanana, who struck out 10, and a two-run triple by Ron Jackson combined to give the Angels a 2-0 victory over the Yankees.

Cubs 7, Braves 6 at Chicago (day game):
The Cubs ended a six-game losing streak with a 7-6 victory over the Braves, who were stopped on their string of six victories in a row. With the wind blowing out and gusting up to 25 miles an hour, five batters hit homers. Ken Henderson and Earl Williams connected in succession for the Braves in the fourth and Darrel Chaney hit a two-run homer in the sixth. The Cubs, who had a two-run blow by Jose Cardenal in the third, won with a five-run outburst in the fifth. Dave Rosello walked and Rick Monday homered. Cardenal tripled and scored on an infield out by Bill Madlock. A single by Jerry Morales, double by Pete LaCock and single by Steve Swisher then added two more runs to enable the Cubs to gain their victory.

Phillies 10, Dodgers 6 at Los Angeles (night game):
A homer by Dick Allen ignited a four-run outburst in the 12th inning and brought the Phillies a 10-6 victory over the Dodgers. After Allen's blast broke the tie, Phils added their other runs on singles by Ollie Brown and Garry Maddox, a triple by Bob Boone and single by Dave Cash.

Reds 6, Pirates 1 at Pittsburgh (night game):
George Foster, who leads the N. L. in runs batted in, raised his season's total to 52 with a pair of RBIs as the Reds defeated the Pirates, 6-1. Foster knocked in one run with a double in the fifth inning and another with a single in the seventh.

Mets 6, Padres 0 at San Diego (night game):
Dave Kingman, who leads both major leagues in homers, smashed his 22nd of the season and Jon Matlack pitched a five-hitter as the Mets ended their four-game losing streak by defeating the Padres, 6-0.

Expos 6, Giants 5 at San Francisco (day game):
The Giants' inability to turn a double play on an infield roller in the eighth inning enabled the Expos to score the run that produced a 6-5 victory. Andre Thornton and Barry Foote each hit two-run homers for the Expos. In the eighth, Gary Roenicke singled and took third on a single by Thornton. With one out, Larry Parrish grounded into a forceout of Thornton, but beat the throw to first, preventing a double play, as Roenicke scored what proved to be the Expos' winning run.
