Today's scores and summaries:

Indians 8, Rangers 7 at Cleveland (day game):
After the Rangers took a 5-0 lead with the aid of a grand-slam homer by Al Oliver, the Indians rallied to gain an 8-7 victory. The comeback started with two runs in the fifth inning and two more in the sixth before the Indians capped their scoring with four runs in the seventh. Jerry Dybzinski led off that stanza with his first major league homer. Rick Manning followed with a single and Toby Harrah tripled to tie the score at 6-6. Mike Hargrove singled, driving in Harrah with the go-ahead run. Later in the stanza, Hargrove scored what proved to be the deciding run on a forceout by Jorge Orta.

Red Sox 12, Tigers 7 at Detroit (day game):
Carl Yastrzemski homered with two men on base in the fourth inning when the Red Sox erupted for six runs en route to a 12-7 victory over the Tigers.

The Red Sox put together three singles and a forceout by Rick Burleson for their first run in the fourth inning to break a 3-3 tie. After Yastrzemski homered, another run scored on a single by Jim Rice and double by Tony Perez.

A grand slam by Barry Bonnell broke up a scoreless duel in the ninth inning and powered the Blue Jays to a 4-0 victory over the Brewers. Dave Stieb held the Brewers to five hits.

Wilfong then broke a 1-1 tie with a single in the fifth for the game-winning RBI.

White Sox 8, Yankees 7 at New York (night game):
Thad Bosley scored from third base on a suicide squeeze bunt by Mike Squires in the 12th inthe -ning to bring the White Sox an 8-7 victory over the Yankees.

The White Sox took the lead with a run in the 10th, but Graig Nettles prolonged the game with a homer in the Yankees' half.

A wild throw by Larry Milbourne, attempting to complete a double play, allowed the Angels to score the deciding run in a 7-6 victory over the Mariners. After both clubs had four-run innings, Jim Anderson hit a two-run homer for the M's in the fourth. Joe Rudi got one run back for the Angels with a round-tripper in the sixth.

Thomasson's single tied the score at 3-3 and Monday's hit then drove in the winning run.

Phillies 7, Cardinals 0 at Philadelphia (night game):
Steve Carlton set an N. L. record for most career one-hitters, racking up his sixth while pitching the Phillies to a 7-0 victory over the Cardinals. Ted Simmons, leading off the second inning, singled for the only hit allowed by the lefthander, who beat the Cardinals for the 25th time in 33 career decisions since being traded away by the St. Louis club in 1972. John Fulgham matched Carlton in shutout pitching until the seventh inning when the Phillies scored three runs on a double by Greg Luzinski, pass to Bob Boone, triple by pinch-hitter Del Unser and wild throw by Tommy Herr on the relay from the outfield. Garry Maddox knocked in two runs with a single in the eighth and Boone capped the scoring with a two-run homer.

Giants 3, Reds 1 at San Francisco (day game):
Bob Knepper yielded only six hits, four of the infield variety, and pitched the Giants to a 3-1 victory over the Reds.
