Today's scores and summaries:

Yankees 5, Red Sox 4 at Boston (night game):
Willie Randolph walked, advanced to third on Mickey Rivers' single and scored what proved to be the winning run on Thurman Munson's groundout in the fifth inning as the Yankees edged the Red Sox, 5-4. Reggie Jackson and Graig Nettles hit back-to-back homers off Bill Lee in the second.

[DH] Brewers 4, White Sox 3 (day game) / White Sox 8, Brewers 3 at Chicago (day game):
A four-run sixth inning enabled the White Sox to defeat the Brewers, 8-3, and salvage a split of a doubleheader after the Brewers took the opener, 4-3. Reliever Lerrin LaGrow issued back-to-back walks to Robin Yount and Don Money in the eighth inning to force in the winning run in the opener. Alan Bannister keyed a sixth-inning rally in the nightcap after Eduardo Rodriguez walked the bases full.

Indians 1, Angels 0 at Cleveland (night game):
Dennis Eckersley threw the second no-hitter in the major leagues this season, striking out 12 of the Angels, including Bobby Grich, Jerry Remy and Terry Humphrey twice each. His opponent, Frank Tanana, the American League's winningest pitcher with eight victories, hurled a five-hitter and fanned six. The Indians' only run came in the first inning on Duane Kuiper's one-out triple and Jim Norris' perfectly-executed suicide squeeze bunt. With the no-hitter, Eckersley extended his hitless streak to 16 2/3 consecutive innings.

A's 6, Tigers 3 at Detroit (night game):
Dock Ellis pitched seven shutout innings before weakening in the eighth as the Athletics dealt the Tigers their sixth straight setback, 6-3. The A's combined singles by Earl Williams and Tony Armas and a double by Marty Perez with two errors by third baseman Phil Mankowski, a walk and hit batsman to score five runs in the fourth inning.

Orioles 9, Twins 7 at Minnesota (night game):
Lee May powered the Orioles to a 9-7 triumph over the Twins with four hits, including a two-run homer in the fifth inning and three-run clout in the sixth. A two-run double by Larry Hisle in the seventh decided the issue, however. The Orioles' Doug DeCinces suffered a broken nose and possible internal injuries in a basepath collision with Bob Randall in the second inning.

[DH] Mariners 7, Rangers 4 (night game) / Mariners 9, Rangers 3 at Texas (night game):
The Mariners swept a doubleheader from the Rangers, 7-4, 9-3, extending the longest winning streak in club history to five games. A two-run double by Ruppert Jones was the decisive blow in the Mariners' three-run seventh inning of the first game. Carlos Lopez hit a home run in the fourth, delivered a run-scoring double in a three-run fifth and unloaded another homer in the seventh inning of the second game as the Mariners completed their 12-game trip with a 9-3 record.

Royals 4, Blue Jays 1 at Toronto (night game):
Joe Zdeb singled to score the go-ahead run in a two-run sixth inning that paved the way for the Royals to beat the Blue Jays, 4-1, behind the five-hit pitching of Paul Splittorff, Larry Gura and Mark Littell.

Reds 7, Braves 3 at Cincinnati (night game):
Ken Griffey's two-run triple and Pete Rose's single with two out triggered a four-run outburst in the eighth inning and carried the Reds to a 7-3 triumph over the Braves. Rookie Don Collins, relieving Andy Messersmith in the seventh, issued two walks to set the stage for the Reds' surge. Dale Murray pitched two hitless innings to gain the victory. Dan Driessen drove in two runs for the Reds and George Foster hit his 11th homer in the sixth.

Astros 5, Dodgers 3 at Houston (night game):
Doug Rau took his first loss after five wins as the Astros scored a 5-3 victory over the Dodgers. Joaquin Andujar gave up five hits for his fifth win and Ken Forsch logged his sixth save by putting down a Dodger threat in the ninth. The Astros won it with four runs in the second on singles by Enos Cabell, Art Howe and Cesar Cedeno and an error by shortstop Ted Martinez. The Dodgers' Dusty Baker rapped his 10th homer of the season in the seventh.

[DH] Expos 5, Mets 1 (day game) / Expos 3, Mets 2 at New York (day game):
Home runs by Tony Perez and Andre Dawson, plus tight pitching by Steve Rogers and Stan Bahnsen, carried the Expos to a doubleheader sweep over the Mets, 5-1 and 3-2. Rogers pitched a four-hitter in the opener, backed by Perez' two-run shot, for his sixth triumph. Bahnsen hurled his first National League victory in the nightcap, going five innings in his first start with the Expos. Dawson's two-run smash came off loser Jackson Todd. Dawson also rapped a key single in the three-run sixth inning of the opener. Ed Kranepool misplayed the hit, allowing two runs to score.

Phillies 6, Pirates 4 at Philadelphia (night game):
Tim McCarver's three-run double in the first powered the Phils to a 6-4 victory over the Pirates, Steve Carlton's seventh win of the season. The Pirates held a 4-3 lead after Bill Robinson homered and Dave Parker hit a key double in a two-run fifth. Ted Sizemore's homer, Jay Johnstone's double and Bob Boone's sacrifice fly gave the Phils two more runs in the last of the fifth. They tallied an insurance run on Carlton's sacrifice fly in the eighth.

[DH] Padres 12, Giants 8 (day game) / Padres 9, Giants 8 at San Francisco (day game):
Rollie Fingers logged his 11th and 12th saves as the Padres stretched their winning streak to four with a doubleheader sweep over the Giants, 12-8 and 9-8. Mike Ivie hit two doubles in the opener and three more in the nightcap for a total of six RBIs for the day as Alvin Dark made his debut as Padres' skipper. Ivie tied an N. L. record with five doubles in the twin bill. Dark used 20 players, including six pitchers, in the opener, and 21 players, including seven hurlers, in the second game. The Padres scored seven runs in the seventh inning of the opener, negating a grand slam by rookie Jack Clark and two homers by Darrell Evans for the Giants. Gary Thomasson's two-run homer gave the Giants a 7-5 lead in the sixth inning of the second game, but the Padres put it away with a run in the seventh and three more in the eighth.

Cardinals 14, Cubs 0 at St. Louis (day game):
The Cards snapped the Cubs' five-game winning streak with a nine-run sixth inning as Pete Falcone hurled a six-hitter for a 14-0 triumph. Kein Reitz rapped a two-run homer and Lou Brock smashed a two-run triple in the big inning. The Cards collected a season-high 21 hits.
