The former Boston slugger, dealt to the Milwaukee Brewers last winter, returned to haunt the Red Sox Tuesday night In the midst of their tension-filled American League East baseball race. "If I say I'm not fired up playing here, I'd be telling a lie," Scott said after hitting a two-run homer at Fenway Park that led the Brewers to a significant triumph over Boston. "After all, I played here for six years and I have a lot of friends here." The defeat tut Boston's lead In the East to a mere half game over the Detroit Tigers and kept the four-team race In an extremely nervous state. The Tigers and New York Yankees, both Idle Tuesday night, gained ground on the Red Sox.

The Yankees moved within 2 games of Boston and are tied with the Baltimore Orioles, who lost $-2 to the Cleveland Indians. Chris Chambliss and Ray Fosse hit consecutive home runs In the fourth inning to lead Cleveland over Baltimore, dealing the Orioles their 32nd oneruri defeat of the year. Chambliss also singled home a Geveland run in the sixth. The Orioles scored a run in the fifth on singles by Johnny Oates and Don Buford and a sacrifice fly by Bobby Grich, then scored their second run on Oates' ninth-inning homer. Steve Busby pitched a flvehitter and Ed Klrkpatrick slammed a home run as Kansas City beat Chicago and dropped the White Sox four games behind the A's.

The defeat lowered Oakland's pennant-winning magic number to four in the West. Rookie Billy Parker hit a home run and Andy Messersmlth fired a three-hitter to lead California over Texas. Parker's homer came off Mike Paul In the second inning. The Angels added the eventual winning run In the sixth when Lee Stanton scored on third baseman Jim Mason's throwing' error. In the other American League games, the Kansas Gty Royals stopped the Chicago White Sox 2-1 and the California Angels nipped the Texas Rangers 2-1.

Rain washed out a twl-night doubleheader between the Minnesota Twins and Oakland A'a. National League scores: Pittsburgh 5, Philadelphia Chicago 8, Montreal Atlanta 10, Cincinnati San Francisco 5, Houston New York 3, St. Louis 1 and Los Angeles 7, San Diego 3. The Red Sox were unable to hold a 4 0 lead built on early two-run homers by Carl Yastrzemskl and pitcher Marty Pattln. The Brewers finally caught up In the eighth after getting a run In the fifth on Johnny Briggs' homer and one in the sixth on Ellie Rodriguez' runscoring hit.

Brock Davis touched off Milwaukee's winning rally with a bunt single and eventually came around with the first run on Rodriguez' sacrifice fly. Joe Lahoud then reached base on Yastrzemski's error at first base and Scott promptly put Pattin's pitch into the seats. fre.am. mates" i Bench sweats two to fake homer lead .2 i v. ,5 "TV? box score." Aaron's homer was number 671, 43 away from the lifetime record of Babe Ruth 714.

"Well, I'm one closer, he said, confessing he was a little tired, "I don't have it in mind hitting a home run every time I go up there. I Just try to meet the ball. I figure the home runs will take care of themselves. "The number is 43 now, I'll admit I can't make it this year," he Joked, "but I'm shooting for it." Reds Manager Sparky Anderson admittedly was upset with the performance of loser Don Gullett on the mound. He had picked the left hander to pitch the first game of the playoffs against Pittsburgh and said he still plans it that way.

"He certainly shouldn't have been hit that hard," said Anderson, noting that every Brave starter had at least one hit and scored at least once. "He would have been out of the game under normal conditions, but I wanted him to have a good workout." Gullett gave up seven runs in six innings, six of them earned. Aaron homered in the first inning, the Reds came back with two on Bench's first homer and the Braves got three more in the third. They scored another in the fifth and two more in the sixth on Dustty Baker's homer. CINCINNATI (AP)-Johnriy Bench took the 'National League lead with his 38th and 39th home runs Tuesday night, but In a losing effort to another slugger, Henry Aaron who hit his 32nd and led Atlanta 10-9 over Cincinnati.

"It's surprising the way things worked out this way for me," said Bench, who also leads the league with runs bat ted in at 121. "It wasn't a matter of Just catching up to Nate Colbert (of San Diego with 38, because Nat figured to hit a couple more and moved way in front when no one else was hitting them." Bench has homered six times In the last six games. "I outguessed myself twice on Bench," said Atlanta starter Jim Hardin, 5-2. He said he threw Bench fast balls both times, the second one at knee level. "I'll give Bench all the credit in the world.

He must be terribly strong because he muscled it out of there." Hardin gave up eight runs in eight and two-thirds innings, but won the game. "Who ever heard of giving up eight runs and winning a ball game? But I guess it evens things out," Hardin said, "when I think of all the close ones I've lost. Truthfully, I had pretty good stuff, but I know it's not going to be very impressive when they look at the Ik 5 iSiliiPiiiipii -r i-iriirniii niiim ri irMMn. .1 ti 1 1,) UMPIRE TOM GORMAN shows Houston Astros action In Houston.

"Either I do or I don't," Blass said Tuesday night after winning his 19th of the baseball season, scattering eight Philadelphia hits as the Pirates beat the Phillies 5-1.

"I certainly want 20," added Blass, who would become the first Pittsburgh hurler to reach that plateau since Vernon Law did it in 1960, "but I'm not going to worry about it." Blass will have one more regular-season start, then he'll rest until the start of the National League playoffs against Cincinnati. It's likely that the 30-year-old right-hander will open the best-of-five playoff Oct. 7 against the Reds' Don Gullett. But unlike Blass, Gullett had his problems Tuesday night. The Atlanta Braves ripped him for seven runs in six innings and handed him his 10th loss in 18 decisions en route to a 10-9 victory over Cincinnati.

In other National League games, the New York Mets downed St. Louis 3-1, the Chicago Cubs blanked Montreal 60, San Francisco defeated Houston 5-2 and Los Angeles beat San homers countered two by the Reds Johnny Bench, who leads the majors with 39 homers and 121 runs batted in. Pete Rose added three RBI to Bench's four in the game as Cincinnati stroked 14 hits. Jerry Koosman of the Mets had a no-hitter for 6 1-3 innings. But when he gave up a ninth-inning homer to Ted Simmons and then a single, Tug McGraw came on to get the final out and his 25th save.

Ed Kranepool and Wayne Garrett singled home New York runs and Ken Boswell hit a sacrifice fly for another one. The Cubs remained 4 games ahead of the third-place Mets in the East as Milt Pappas twirled a four-hitter against the Expos for his 16th victory of the year and 10th in a row. Billy Williams singled home one run and Glenn Beckert singled for two more in Chicago's four-run third inning, then Williams cracked his 35th homer, a two-run shot, in the fourth. The Giants wiped out a two-run Houston lead with a four-run fifth and Bobby Bonds drilled his 24th homer in the seventh to give the victory to Sam McDowell, who surrendered Bob Watson's 15th homer in the second inning. That left the Astros, second in the West, just one game ahead of the Dodgers, who got two-run homers from rookies Ron Cey and Joejerguson, Chicago .565 4 Minnesota 75 70 .517 11 Kansas City 73 74 .497 14 California 71 78 .477 17 Texas 52 96 .351 35ft Tuesday's Results Cleveland 3, Baltimore 2 Milwaukee 6, Boston 4 California 2, Texas 0 Kansas City 2, Chicago 1 Minnesota at Oakland, 2, rain Only games scheduled Wednesday's Games Milwaukee (Brett 6-11) at i Boston (McGlothen 8-6) Cleveland (Perry 22-16) at Baltimore (McNally 13-18), California (Wright 16-11) at Texas (Hand 10-13), New York (Klinee 16-8) at De- trolt (Coleman 18-13), Kansas City (Nelson 9-6) at Chicago (Wood 24-15), Minnesota (Blyleven 15-16 and Corbin 8-8) at Oakland (Holtzman 18-10 and Hunter 20-6), 2, twi-night Clinched Division Pennant Tuesday's results Pittsburgh 5, Philadelphia 1 Chicago 6, Montreal 0 Atlanta 10, Cincinnati 9 San Francisco 5, Houston 2 New York 3, St.

I'd like to get my big hit there." The Bucs bunched all their runs against the Phils in the sixth inning Al Oliver doubled in two, Manny Sanguillen singled for two more and Blass singled for the final run. Ralph Garr, Dusty Baker and Earl Williams drove in two runs apiece for the Braves, who battered Gullett and two relievers for 13 hits. The decisive run, however, came in the top of the ninth inning on Larvell Blanks' sacrifice fly. Baker hit his 17th homer while Hank Aaron hit his 32nd, the 671st of his career, putting him 43 short of Babe Ruth's alltlme record.

DeMarco, 34, was lured out of retirement by the Browns coaching staff and the Dolphins were compensated with a future draft choice.

DeMarco, a 12-year veteran who began his career with the St. Louis Cardinals, retired several weeks ago when former Brown Jim Langer was handed the center job. He was traded to Buffalo, but refused to report and the deal was annulled. Dr. Jerome (Brud) Holland, U.S.
