Rice's Blasts Three as Red Sox Rip Rookie Halo' Hurler


American League
California 4 at Boston 10
- A tale of two debuts for the Angels. Gary Ross allowed 5 runs without recording an out in his debut while Bobby Jones homered in his first MLB at bat. The story here though is Jim Rice of the Red Sox who mashed 3 home runs in the romp
Oakland 3 at New York 8
-Tom Underwood improved to 2-0, 1.80 and George Scott (4), Graig Nettles (5) and Sandy Alomar (1) homered for the Yankees
Chicago 0 at Baltimore 3
-Rudy May (2-0, 3.16) spun a 6-hit shutout and Doug DeCinces hit his 8th home run and drove in all three runs for the 1st place Orioles
Minnesota 8 at Cleveland 6
-Eric Soderholm hit his 6th home run and drove in 3 as the Twins score 7 runs off Rick Waits (2-3, 4.46)
Texas 3 at Detroit 5
-Larry Herndon hit his 1st MLB home run and Dave Roberts (3-0, 2.70) went seven strong for the Tigers in the win
Kansas City 8 at Milwaukee 3
-The Royals have barely played lately because of rain but show no signs of rust here. Dennis Leonard (3-2, 2.27) got the win for 1st place K.C.

National League

Cincinnati 0 at New York 2
-Jon Matlack (1-3, 3.86) tossed a 4-hit shutout making a loser out of Tom Carroll (1-1, 3.42) despite his complete game
Atlanta 2 at Philadelphia 1
-Max Leon (5SV, 1.62) struck out the side in the 9th to preserve Buzz Capra’s (3-3, 3.53) win over tough luck Steve Carlton (1-3, 1.90)
St. Louis 4 at Los Angeles 3 (11)
-Lou Brock’s RBI double in the 11th provided the difference for the Cardinals
Chicago 4 at San Diego 5 (11)
-Recent call-up Aurelio Rodriguez singled off Ramon Hernandez (1-1, 2.00) to plate Hector Torres with the winning run. The Padres finish April on top of the NL West with the win
Pittsburgh 5 at San Francisco 12
-Jim Rooker (2-2, 6.65) fell out of the rotation last year and may do so again after not surviving the 2nd in this one. Butch Metzger and Manny Trillo scored 3 runs each while Von Joshua and Ken Reitz had 3 RBI’s for the Giants
Houston at Montreal, ppd
