Today's scores and summaries:
Indians 7, Orioles 6 at Baltimore (night game):
In a game featured by six homers, the Indians finally prevailed over the Orioles, 7-6. The Tribe trailed, 6-5, going into the ninth inning, but tied the contest with a one-out homer by Toby Harrah. Joe Charboneau followed with a double and Tim Stoddard replaced Dave Ford on the mound for the Orioles. After the second out, Tom Veryzer stroked a single to plate Charboneau with the winning run. The Orioles jumped to a 4-0 lead in their first turn at bat on a three-run homer by Pat Kelly and bases-empty shot by Dan Graham. Terry Crowley connected for another homer in the fourth, but the Indians got a two-run shot from Charboneau in the second and three-run clout by Mike Hargrove in the sixth.
Red Sox 5, Blue Jays 4 at Boston (night game):
A two-run homer by Carl Yastrzemski in the ninth inning lifted the Red Sox to a 5-4 victory over the Blue Jays. The Sox trailed, 4-3, when Carlton Fisk led off the ninth with a walk and Yaz followed with a blast into the right field bullpen. Rookie Lloyd Moseby hit a two-run homer in the fifth for the Jays.
Angels 2, Rangers 0 at California (night game):
The Angels snapped a 10-game home losing streak, defeating the Rangers, 2-0, behind the four-hit pitching of Don Aase. The Angels scored their initial run in the first inning when Larry Harlow came across as Dan Ford bounced into a bases-loaded double play. The second run came in the eighth on a fielder's choice grounder by Ford.
Brewers 4, Mariners 1 at Milwaukee (night game):
Rookie Ricky Keeton, in his major league debut, limited Seattle to three hits over seven innings to receive credit for the victory as the Brewers won their fifth straight game, beating the Mariners, 4-1. The Brewers scored three runs in the first inning. Paul Molitor walked, stole second and tallied on a single by Robin Yount. Ben Oglivie then walked and Sixto Lezcano followed with a two-run double.
White Sox 2, Twins 0 at Minnesota (night game):
A two-run homer by Wayne Nordhagen produced the only runs as the White Sox defeated the Twins, 2-0. Nordhagen's blow in the seventh inning followed a walk to Lamar Johnson and a sacrifice. Britt Burns pitched 8 2/3 innings to get the victory and Mike Proly came on to get the final out and record his second save. The Twins' Ken Landreaux extended his hitting streak to 28 games with a fifth-inning single.
Yankees 9, Tigers 6 at New York (night game):
Jim Spencer drove in three runs with a single and double during an eight-run second inning that gave the Yankees a 9-6 victory over the Tigers. The Yanks sent 13 batters to the plate in the second and collected nine hits. Reggie Jackson singled home a pair of runs and Bobby Brown, Bucky Dent and Lou Piniella also knocked in runs. The Tigers scored five times in the sixth inning, the big blow being a grand slam by Ricky Peters, his first major league homer. It was the third game in a row that the Yanks had at least 15 hits.
Royals 4, A's 2 at Oakland (night game):
Scattering nine hits, Dennis Leonard hurled the Royals to a 4-2 decision over the A's. After the A's tied the game at 2-2 with a homer by Jeff Newman in the seventh inning, the Royals went ahead in the eighth on a leadoff single by George Brett and a double by Amos Otis. An error by left fielder Rickey Henderson on Frank White's liner gave the Royals their final run in the ninth.
Braves 6, Giants 3 at Atlanta (night game):
Gary Matthews drove in a pair of runs with a double and triple and Dale Murphy drilled a two-run double to power the Braves to a 6-3 decision over the Giants. Consecutive two-baggers by Matthews and Murphy in the third inning gave the Braves a 3-1 lead. Matthews chased Chris Chambliss home with a fifth-inning triple and then scored on a fielder's choice.
Cubs 4, Expos 2 at Chicago (day game):
A run-scoring single by Ken Henderson broke a 2-2 tie in the sixth inning and sparked the Cubs to a 4-2 triumph over the Expos. Jerry Martin, who doubled, crossed the plate on Henderson's hit. The first two Chicago tallies came in the third on a homer by Ivan DeJesus.
Reds 6, Dodgers 1 at Cincinnati (night game):
Ken Griffey, George Foster and Dan Driessen hit consecutive homers in the third inning to lift the Reds to a 6-1 victory over the Dodgers. Griffey's blast followed walks to Dave Collins and Dave Concepcion. Foster followed with his seventh round-tripper and Driessen his fourth to cap the five-run inning. It was the 42nd time in major league history that three players had consecutive homers. Jerry Turner, Dave Winfield and Gene Tenace of San Diego last turned the trick on July 11, 1979.
Astros 4, Padres 3 at Houston (night game):
An eighth-inning single by Jose Cruz drove home Craig Reynolds with the winning run as the Astros edged the Padres, 4-3. The score was 3-3 when Reynolds drew a one-out walk, stole second one out later and scored when Cruz's grounder eluded the diving Ozzie Smith at shortstop. An RBI triple by Enos Cabell had tied the contest in the sixth.
Pirates 3, Phillies 2 at Philadelphia (night game):
Pushing across a run in the 13th inning, the Pirates posted a 3-2 victory, ending the Phillies' five-game winning streak. Bill Madlock led off the Bucs' 13th with a smash back to the mound that reliever Dickie Noles could not handle. Lee Lacy sacrificed Madlock to second and, after Phil Garner struck out and pinch-hitter Ed Ott was walked intentionally, Mike Easler grounded a pinch-single to right to plate Madlock. The Phillies had deadlocked the contest with a two-run homer by Mike Schmidt in the ninth inning.
Mets 9, Cardinals 5 at St. Louis (night game):
Taking advantage of St. Louis misplays, the Mets shot down the Cardinals, 9-5. In the second inning, Mike Jorgensen led off with a single, took third when second baseman Mike Ramsey threw wild to first on a grounder by John Stearns, and scored on sacrifice fly by Steve Henderson. Stearns then scored on a double by Jerry Morales. The Mets added another pair in the third, one coming home on a two-out throwing error by shortstop Garry Templeton and another on a triple by Henderson. Winning pitcher Mark Bomback capped the three-run fifth frame with a two-run double.
