Giants win is uncertain. But he stifled a Pitts-

in the National League’s top 10.
He allowed but a single to the Bucs’ Bob
Robertson, a liner down the left field line to
lead off the eighth inning, and cruised to his
first major league shutout, boosting the Giants’
West Division lead to 10½ games over the
Dodgers.
Carrithers, who struck out two and walked
two, took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the fourth
on a Dick Dietz RBI single and a sacrifice fly
by Chris Speier.
Infielder Hal Lanier broke open the game in
the sixth inning with the first grand slam of his
eight-year career.
Carrithers (5-0) lowered his ERA to 1.26.
Pittsburgh starter Bob Johnson allowed seven
runs in 6 1/3 innings, dropping to 6-10.
Tito Fuentes homered for the Giants in the
bottom of the eighth inning, extending his hit
streak to 16 consecutive games.
The Giants are 17-1 since the All-Star break.
Mets 7, Cubs 2
NEW YORK — Ray Sadecki scattered nine
hits and fanned eight as he ran his record to 11-
1 in the Mets’ victory over the Cubs.
Sadecki and Chicago’s Milt Pappas waged a
2-2 standoff through 4½ innings. In the bottom
of the fifth, the Mets’ Ed Kranepool lashed a tie
-breaking two-run double. New York’s Ken
Singleton added a three-run homer in the
eighth.
Pappas (9-8), lost for the first time in five
decisions. Sadecki hurled his eighth complete
en solid innings and reliever Tony Cloninger
recorded the final two outs with men in scoring
position as the Reds squeaked past the Dodgers.
Johnny Bench broke a 1-1 tie in the top of the
third inning with his 21st home run, a three-run
shot. The Dodgers crept to within 6-4 after eight
innings. Tony Perez’s solo homer gave Cincy
some breathing room.
Willie Crawford’s two-run double made it a
one-run game, but Cloninger closed it out for his

Here Comes the Judge — Frank Robby Homers, O’s Win
BALTIMORE — It has become a truism of
the Orioles this season.
When Frank Robinson loses a baseball over
the outfield fence, the Birds tend to win.
So it happened Saturday. Robinson, with the
O’s in a tight affair with the Royals, tagged a
two-run home run in the seventh inning to estab-
lish a 5-2 lead that stood as the final score.
It was Robinson’s 22nd clout of the season
and 497th of his career.
Moreover, it marked the 20th game in which
he has homered this year. In those games, the
Orioles are 17-3 (.850). When he doesn’t con-
nect, they are 48-35 (.578).
No doubt some of his blows have been of stra-
tegic import. But given Robinson’s stature
among his teammates — he has galvanized the
clubhouse with his kangaroo court — it’s likely
his homers create a good vibration as well.

Angels 8, Tigers 5
DETROIT — A three-run home run by Rog-
er Repoz sparked a four-run rally in the top of
the ninth inning as the Angels continued their
winning ways and their hex over the Tigers.
The game was tied 4-4 after eight innings. A
single by the Halos’ Ken McMullen, combined
with a Detroit error, scored the tie-breaking run
in the ninth. Three batters later, Repoz broke
the game open.
The Angels are 11-0 against Detroit this sea-
son. Even more remarkable, they are 13-6 since
shedding themselves of outfielders Alex John-
son and Tony Conigliaro, their 3-4 hitters at the
beginning of the season.

A’s 8, Indians 2
CLEVELAND — Mike Epstein powered a
pair of home runs and Rick Monday chipped in
a three-run shot as the A’s spoiled Johnny
Lipon’s debut as Indians’ interim manager.
Monday broke a scoreless tie in the fourth
inning with his career-high 18th homer, belted
off Tribe starter Steve Dunning.
Epstein cracked a two-run round-tripper as
part of a three-run rally in the seventh. He add-
ed a solo shot in the ninth. He has 16 homers.
The A’s Chuck Dobson (6-8) was one out
away from a shutout when Indians’ leadoff
man Ted Uhlaender slugged a two-run home
run.
Dunning fell to 3-10.
