Today's scores and summaries:

Red Sox 5, Brewers 3 at Boston (night game):
Butch Hobson batted in three runs with a sacrifice fly and homer to pace the Red Sox to a 5-3 victory over the Brewers. A single by Carlton Fisk, double by Jim Rice, infield out by Jim Dwyer and Hobson's fly produced two runs in the second inning. Hobson then decided the outcome with his round-tripper after a pass to Dwyer in the fourth. Dick Davis and Sal Bando hit homers for the Brewers' runs.

Mariners 4, Indians 3 at Cleveland (night game):
Julio Cruz hit his first homer of the season, connecting in the 10th inning, to give the Mariners a 4-3 victory over the Indians. Dan Meyer and Cruz divided the Mariners' RBIs. Cruz drove in a run with a single and Meyer plated a pair with another single to put the Mariners ahead, 3-1, in the eighth, but the Indians rallied for two runs in the ninth to send the game into overtime.

Tigers 12, Angels 1 at Detroit (night game):
The Tigers smashed five homers, including two by Richie Hebner, and trounced the Angels, 12-1. Hebner hit his first homer of the game in the fourth inning and, after a single by Kirk Gibson, Stan Papi also connected for the circuit in his first game with the Tigers after being acquired from Oklahoma City (American Association). Having hit two homers in one inning, the Tigers did even better with three in the sixth when Lance Parrish rapped a round-tripper, Hebner hit his second homer of the game and Gibson clouted a four-bagger.

Royals 9, White Sox 2 at Kansas City (night game):
Larry Gura retired 17 straight batters at one point and turned in his seventh complete game of the season while pitching the Royals to a 9-2 victory over the White Sox. Darrell Porter backed Gura with a two-run homer in the first inning and John Wathan provided additional support by driving in three runs, two with a single in the third and one with a grounder in the sixth.

Orioles 3, Twins 2 at Minnesota (night game):
Pinch-hitting in the 10th inning, Terry Crowley came through with a homer to lift the Orioles to a 3-2 victory over the Twins. Gary Roenicke also homered for the Orioles, who tied the score at 2-2 with an unearned run in the seventh inning. Crowley's homer was only the second hit off Doug Corbett in four innings of relief pitching for the Twins.

Yankees 6, Blue Jays 0 at New York (night game):
Breaking up a scoreless game, the Yankees erupted for four runs in the seventh inning and added a pair in the eighth to defeat the Blue Jays, 6-0. The Yankees collected only two hits off Jim Clancy until Reggie Jackson opened the seventh with a single. After an error, sacrifice and intentional pass, Rick Cerone came through with a double, driving in two runs. Two others followed on a passed ball and single by Piniella. Luis Tiant, who brought his career record against the Blue Jays to 9-0, was seeking his 50th shutout and flared up when removed by Manager Dick Howser with two men on base and two out in the eighth. Tiant flipped the ball at Howser when the manager came to the mound and later was fined $500.

A's 6, Rangers 3 at Texas (night game):
Successive homers by Dwayne Murphy and Mitchell Page after a walk to Rickey Henderson in the fourth inning started the A's off to a 6-3 victory over the Rangers. Murphy singled for another RBI when the A's clinched the outcome with two runs in the seventh. Steve McCatty held the Rangers to six hits, including a two-run double by Al Oliver and homer by Richie Zisk.

Cubs 10, Phillies 7 at Chicago (day game):
Playing in his 256th game, Tim Blackwell hit his first major league homer, connecting with two men on base to spark the Cubs to a 10-7 victory over the Phillies. The catcher's blow came in the first inning when the Cubs erupted for six runs. Mike Vail, subbing for the injured Dave Kingman, went 4-for-4 and also drove in three runs, including two with a homer in the fifth inning.

Dodgers 8, Braves 4 at Los Angeles (night game):
A three-run homer by Dusty Baker in the first inning and two-run double by Bill Russell in the third were the Dodgers' key blows in an 8-4 victory over the Braves. Derrel Thomas and Reggie Smith singled ahead of Baker's belt. After Russell's two-bagger in the fourth, the Dodgers added another pair on a grounder by Burt Hooton and an error. Gary Matthews hit two homers and Chris Chambliss one for the Braves.

Mets 5, Pirates 1 at Pittsburgh (night game):
Helped by Steve Henderson, who drove in three runs with a pair of doubles, Pat Zachry picked up his first victory of the season when the Mets defeated the Pirates, 5-1, in a game stopped by rain after 5½ innings. Lee Mazzilli, Henderson and John Stearns hit doubles for two runs in the first inning. Henderson batted in a pair with his second two-bagger when the Mets added three runs in the second.

Reds 5, Padres 3 at San Diego (night game):
A four-run outburst in the second inning carried the Reds to a 5-3 victory over the Padres, who went down to their fifth straight defeat. After Willie Montanez batted in two runs for the Padres with a single in the first inning, the Reds loaded the bases in the second on a single by Harry Spilman, double by Ray Knight and pass to Johnny Bench. Ron Oester singled to drive in one run and Charlie Leibrandt followed with a sacrifice fly to tie the score. Dave Collins walked to fill the sacks again. John D'Acquisto replaced Steve Mura for the Padres and uncorked a wild pitch, allowing Bench to score the Reds' go-ahead run. Dave Concepcion then batted in the fourth run of the frame with an infield out.

Giants 3, Astros 2 at San Francisco (night game):
Vida Blue gained his sixth straight victory when a suicide squeeze bunt by Johnnie LeMaster enabled the Giants to defeat the Astros, 3-2. The Giants scored their initial pair in the first inning on a single by Bill North, double by Willie McCovey and single by Darrell Evans. After the Astros pulled even with homers by Jose Cruz and Art Howe in the fourth, Terry Whitfield opened the Giants' sixth with a single and took third on a single by Milt May before scoring the winning run on LeMaster's bunt.

Expos 10, Cardinals 4 at St. Louis (night game):
Ellis Valentine hit a three-run double in the second inning and Chris Speier smacked a three-run triple in the ninth as the Expos defeated the Cardinals, 10-4, with Scott Sanderson pitching his first complete game of the season. In an effort to snap out of their losing ways, the Cards summoned Jim Kaat from the bullpen for his first start of the season, but the vet lefthander was tagged for six runs in four innings, including homers by Andre Dawson and Gary Carter. The victory was costly for the Expos. Valentine was hit in the face by a pitch thrown by Roy Thomas in the sixth inning and suffered multiple fractures of his cheekbone, putting him on the disabled list.
