Today's scores and summaries:

Twins 4, Orioles 2 at Baltimore (night game):
Homers by Rob Wilfong and Glenn Adams sparked the Twins to a 4-2 triumph over the Orioles. Willong connected for a solo clout in the first inning and Adams led off the fourth with his round-tripper. A sacrifice fly by Rick Sofield produced Minnesota's second-inning run and the Twins' fourth run came in the fifth as the result of an error.

White Sox 11, Brewers 7 at Chicago (night game):
A two-run homer by Lamar Johnson in the sixth inning snapped a 7-7 tie and keyed the White Sox to an 11-7 victory over the Brewers. Johnson's homer scored Bob Molinaro, who had walked. A bench-clearing brawl in the fourth inning after the Sox' Mike Proly hit Ben Oglivie in the shin with a pitch, resulted in a dislocated left shoulder for Pale Hose Manager Tony LaRussa. Oglivie charged the mound and both dugouts and bullpens emptied. Oglivie was ejected and LaRussa was treated in the clubhouse and returned to the bench in the sixth inning.

A's 5, Indians 1 at Oakland (night game):
Steady six-hit pitching by Matt Keough carried the A's to a 5-1 victory over the Indians. The A's scored in the third inning on a triple by Dave McKay and RBI single by Dwayne Murphy. Dave Revering and Wayne Gross clouted back-to-back homers in the sixth. The loss was the fourth straight for the Tribe.

Rangers 11, Red Sox 3 at Texas (night game):
A two-run round-tripper by Buddy Bell in the first inning triggered the Rangers to an 11-3 rout of the Red Sox as Gaylord Perry won his 281st major league game, tops among active pitchers. Bell's swat came after Bump Wills doubled. Texas scored a pair of unearned runs in the second when Johnny Grubb reached first on an error by Carl Yastrzemski, Al Oliver doubled home a tally and Jim Sundberg stroked a sacrifice fly.

Expos 10, Astros 1 at Montreal (day game):
Teeing off early on Houston ace J.R. Richard, the Expos thumped the Astros, 10-1. Ron LeFlore opened the Expos' first inning with a single, reached second on an error by center fielder Cesar Cedeno, went to third on a single by Rodney Scott and scored on a double by Rowland Office. After a walk to Gary Carter loaded the bases, Warren Cromartie singled home a pair of runs and Ken Macha followed with an RBI single. LeFlore singled home runs in the fourth and sixth and drove in the final marker a with triple in the seventh.

Mets 3, Reds 2 at New York (night game):
A pinch-double by Ron Hodges in the 10th inning lifted the Mets to a 3-2 triumph over the Reds. Jose Cardenal opened the bottom of the 10th with a single and was forced at second by Alex Trevino, who was attempting to sacrifice. Hodges, batting for shortstop Mario Ramirez, lined a 1-2 pitch to the wall in left-center to plate Trevino with the winning run. The Reds had tied the score at 2-2 in the sixth on a bases-loaded sacrifice fly by Cesar Geronimo, but an alert play by Mets first baseman Lee Mazzilli resulted in a double play. Mazzilli cut off the throw from the outfield and trapped Dan Driessen off second to end the inning.

Phillies 7, Braves 1 at Philadelphia (night game):
Three-hit pitching by Steve Carlton and a pair of homers by Mike Schmidt paced the Phillies to a 7-1 victory over the Braves. Carlton had a no-hitter for 7 2/3 innings, but his no-hit bid was spoiled on a single by Bill Nahorodny. Dale Murphy led off the ninth with a homer and Chris Chambliss followed with a single. Greg Luzinski doubled home a Phillies run in the first inning and Schmidt drilled solo blasts in third and fourth stanzas.

Cardinals 9, Giants 5 at St. Louis (night game):
A two-run double by Ted Simmons keyed a five-run second inning that sent the Cardinals on their way to a 9-5 victory over the Giants. The Redbirds trailed, 5-2, going into the bottom of the second, when Tony Scott opened with an infield hit and Pete Vuckovich drew a base on balls. A single by Garry Templeton scored Scott but Vuckovich was out trying to reach third on the hit, Templeton taking second on the play. Tommy Herr got a double when his hot smash went off shortstop Johnnie LeMaster's glove, sending Templeton to third. A single by Keith Hernandez drove in Templeton and sent Frisco starter Vida Blue to the showers. Simmons rapped the first offering of reliever Tom Griffin into the right field corner to put the Cards ahead, 6-5, and an RBI single by Ken Reitz capped the outburst.
