Today's scores and summaries:

Tigers 2, Orioles 0 at Baltimore (night game):
With Dave Roberts pitching a four-hitter, the Tigers shut out the Orioles, 2-0. The Tigers picked up an unearned run in the fourth inning and clinched their victory when Alex Johnson homered in the sixth.

Angels 2, White Sox 1 at Chicago (night game):
Playing against his ex-teammates, Bill Melton scored one run and drove in another to provide the Angels with a 2-1 victory over the White Sox. In the second inning, Melton doubled and crossed the plate on a single by Ron Jackson. Then, in the next stanza, Dave Chalk singled, reached second on an error and counted the deciding run on a single by Melton.

Indians 3, Yankees 2 at Cleveland (night game):
Pat Dobson, facing his former teammates, became the A. L.'s first 10-game winner this season when the Indians defeated the Yankees, 3-2. The Indians scored what proved to be their winning run in the seventh inning when Duane Kuiper doubled and Rick Manning singled. While with the Yankees last season, Dobson did not record his 10th victory until August 15.

A's 5, Royals 2 at Kansas City (night game):
Sal Bando hit two homers, smashing a 2-2 tie with his second blow and sending the Athletics on their way to a 5-2 victory over the Royals. Bando hit his first homer of the game in the second inning to account for the A's initial tally. After his second homer broke a tie in the ninth, the A's went on to add a pair of insurance runs on a single by Jeff Newman for the rookie catcher's first major league hit.

Brewers 6, Red Sox 5 at Milwaukee (night game):
With two out in the 10th inning, Jack Heidemann raced home on an infield hit by Bernie Carbo to give the Brewers a 6-5 victory over the Red Sox. Heidemann set up the winning run with a single and stopped at second on another single by George Scott. Carbo then grounded deep to Rick Burleson and beat the shortstop's long throw by an eyelash, while Heidemann, running with the pitch, came home from second to score.

Mets 13, Cardinals 0 at New York (day game):
Jon Matlack pitched his fourth shutout of the season and John Milner hit his second grand-slam homer in one week as the Mets massacred the Cardinals, 13-0, for their seventh straight victory. The Mets scored six of their runs in the sixth inning. Walks to Wayne Garrett and Matlack around a double by Ron Hodges loaded the bases. Mike Phillips singled to drive in two runs. After Felix Millan drew a pass to fill the sacks again, Milner sent everyone home with his grand slam.

Padres 5, Dodgers 3 at San Diego (night game):
The Padres broke a 3-3 tie with doubles by Johnny Grubb and Tito Fuentes in the fourth inning and then clinched a 5-3 victory over the Dodgers in the fifth when Fred Kendall hit his first homer since 1974.
