Interleague Play:
Chicago WSox 3 at Chicago Cubs 8
-Rookie Bruce Kimm hit his 4th home run and drove in four while Dennis Eckersley (9-9, 3.24) and Goose Gossage (8Sv, 3.86) earned the decisions as the Cubs have won the first two in the Windy City rivalry series at Wrigley
Boston 2 at Montreal 3 (10)
-Red Sox closer Skip Lockwood (4-3, 2.74) felt snubbed for the All-Star Game but didn’t prove himself worthy today as the only batter he faced was Andre Thornton (5HR) who hit a pinch-hit home run off him to win it in the bottom of the 10th. The Expos have won seven in a row – all versus AL contenders
NY Yankees 5 at NY Mets 2
-1976 has been a struggle for Thurman Munson, but his 5th home run of the season was the go-ahead shot in the 9th as the Yankees will look for the Subway Series sweep tomorrow. Dick Tidrow (24 Sv, 1.71) pitched a perfect 9th for the save
Baltimore 2 at Philadelphia 8
-The Phillies avoid fall under .500 as they rip Mike Torrez (10-8, 3.81) to build an early 6-2 lead and win easily at the Vet. All-Star Tug McGraw (19Sv, 1.96) got the save and Sixto Lezcano hit his 14th home run
Detroit 6 at Pittsburgh 9
- Dave Roberts (6-4, 3.66) was reacquired by the Pirates from the Tigers a few weeks ago and he knocks off his former mates this afternoon at Three Rivers. He got a lot of help from his offence, including Rennie Stennett who drove in four runs
Kansas City 10 at St. Louis 6
-The Royals build an 8-0 lead for Paul Splittorff (18-3, 2.46), the Cardinals would rally for six off the AL All-Star starter in the 6th but the hole proved too deep for St. Louis. Rookie Tom Poquette went 4 for 5 with three RBI’s for the Royals.
Milwaukee 5 at Atlanta 3
-The Brewers all-star representative is 20 year old Robin Yount. He had two hits and stole his 11th base today helping Eduardo Rodriguez (7-9, 3.48) and Bill Castro (10Sv, 1.73) to the decisions
Cleveland 6 at Cincinnati 13
- Mike Lum his hitting just .195 but he had his third multi-home run game of the season today. He was one of five Reds to have three hits – Joe Morgam, Buddy Bell, George Foster and Johnny Bench were the others
Texas 3 at Houston 5
-Rookie Bob Knepper (6-1, 2.62) continues to roll for Houston and Ken Forsch (24 Sv, 2.35) pitched the final 1.2 innings for the save. The Astros have the best record in baseball.
California 11 at Los Angeles 2
-The Angels have seven home runs in the first two games in Chavez Ravine as Reggie Jackson (13), Don Baylor (20) and rookie Jason Thompson (19) did the damage today. Dave Goltz (13-2, 3.20) responded to his All-Star snub with a victory
Minnesota 1 at San Diego 4
-San Diego halts their slide as Randy Jones (14-3, 3.19) and Rollie Fingers (22Sv, 2.53) shut down a hard-hitting Twins attack.
Oakland 1 at San Francisco 2
-The Giants improve to just 14-29 in one run games as Derrel Thomas (2HR) stuned all-star Don Sutton (12-6, 2.49) with a two-run home run in the 6th. Vida Blue (6-7, 3.87) earned the win for San Francisco.
