Today's scores and summaries:

Red Sox 5, Orioles 3 at Baltimore (night game):
Back-to-back homers by Tony Perez and Dwight Evans in the seventh inning rallied the Red Sox to a 5-3 victory over the Orioles. Evans snapped a 3-3 tie with his circuit clout after Perez led off the inning with his 22nd round-tripper of the season. The Sox then strung together three consecutive two-out singles by Reid Nichols, Rick Burleson and Dave Stapleton to register the final run of the inning.

Blue Jays 6, Tigers 5 at Detroit (night game):
A run-scoring single by Al Woods broke a seventh-inning tie and Lloyd Moseby collected four hits, including two doubles, to pace the Blue Jays to a 6-5 triumph over the Tigers. The Jays trailed, 5-4, going into the seventh, but tied the game on Moseby's RBI double and went ahead when Woods singled home Moseby.

Angels 7, Brewers 3 at Milwaukee (night game):
Scoring late in the game, the Angels downed the Brewers, 7-3. The game was tied, 3-3, in the eighth inning, when Bobby Grich hit a one-out single and Larry Harlow drew a base on balls. Bobby Clark then delivered a single to tally Grich. The Angels iced the game with three runs in the ninth, two of them unearned.

Twins 1, Rangers 0 at Minnesota (night game):
The Twins' Jerry Koosman and Doug Corbett combined to whitewash the Rangers, 1-0. The lone run of the game came off John Butcher in the first inning when Hosken Powell singled, moved to second on a groundout and came home on a single by Roy Smalley.

Rallying for three runs in the eighth inning, the Yankees swept past the Indians, 4-3. The Yanks trailed, 2-1, going into the bottom of the eighth but went ahead on walks to Bucky Dent and Willie Randolph, an RBI double by Bobby Brown and two-run single by Bob Watson. Tommy John, getting relief help from Rich Gossage, received credit for his 22nd victory of the season.

Mariners 5, Royals 4 at Seattle (night game):
Pushing across a run in the bottom of the 11th inning, the Mariners shaded the Royals, 5-4. The game was tied, 4-4, when Bruce Bochte lashed a two-out double and scored as Willie Horton hit a hot smash off the glove of pitcher Dan Quisenberry for a single. George Brett sent the game into overtime with a homer and both clubs then tallied in the 10th inning, K.C. on an error and Seattle on a sacrifice fly by Jerry Narron.

A pinch-single by Jesus Figueroa broke a 2-2 tie in the sixth inning as the Cubs edged the Mets, 3-2, with Bruce Sutter recording his 27th save of the season.

The crowd of 1,171 was the smallest at Wrigley Field since 1968.

Braves 7, Dodgers 2 at Los Angeles (night game):
Homers by Gary Matthews and Bob Horner highlighted a 12-hit attack as the Braves handed the Dodgers their fourth straight defeat, 7-2.

They added two more in the fifth on a homer by Joe Morgan and another in the sixth on a round-tripper by Cedeno.

Giants 7, Reds 3 at San Francisco (night game):
Rich Murray drove in two runs with a pair of singles and Gary Lavelle pitched three scoreless innings in relief to lead the Giants to a 7-3 victory over the Reds.
