(AP)-Tony Armas, hitless in six previous at-bats, belted a grand slam home run in the 14th inning- yesterday to give Mike Norris and the Oakland A's a 6-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Armas, who had struck out three times, hit the first pitch from reliever Sammy Stewart, 2-6, to left field. The A's had loaded the bases on a leadoff triple by Dave Revering and intentional walks to Mickey Klutts and Mitchell Page. THE VICTORY went to Norris, 7-4, who went all 14 innings for his seventh complete game of the year. The A's nearly won it in the 12th but Orioles right fielder Ken Singleton leaped at the fence to rob Dave Revering of a homer. The A's threatened to break the tie in the bottom of the seventh when they got runners on first and third with one out. But Rickey Henderson was caught in a rundown between third and home, and the Orioles wound up with a double play when Henderson and Dwayne Murphy were both tagged out at third. THE A'S TOOK advantage ofa shaky start by Jim Palmer to score twice in the bottom of the first. Henderson led off with a walk, and one out later Dave Revering, Wayne Cross and Mitchell Page delivered singles. Baltimore tied the score in the seventh on a rally ignited by Eddie Murray's leadoff homer, his ninth. Pat Kelly doubled with two out and Kiko Garcia followed with an RBI single. Royals 5, Indians 0 CLEVELAND (AP)-Dennis Leonard pitched a two-hitter yesterday for his second straight shutout and the Kansas City Royals stretched their winning streak to eight games by beating the Cleveland Indians 5-0 in the first game of a doubleheader. Leonard, 6-5, allowed only a leadoff single to Miguel Dilone in the first inning and Toby Harrah's double in the second inning. THE ROYALS' right-hander struck out four and walked four. Last Thursday he held the Texas Rangers to three hits. Kansas City jumped to a 3-0 lead against Rick Waits, 4-6, in the first inning on RBI singles by Amos Otis, Willie Aikens and John Wathan. Wathan hit a sacrifice fly in the third inning and the Royals added their final run off Waits when Frank White led off the fourth inning with his third home run of the season. Wayne Garland of the Indians sparkled in relief, blanking the Royals on one hit over the final six innings. 1. Lvl j 1 1Ca. U Cardinals yesterday signed first-round draft pick Curtis Greer of Michigan to five one-year contracts in hopes he will solve the team's absent pass rush of last year. Greer, who set records for quarter- back sacks during his career at Michigan, also received a' bonus for- signing. OTHER DETAILS of the contract were not disclosed. Greer, a 6-foot-5, 255-pound defensive end, had 48 tackles behind the line of scrimmage for losses of 234 yards during his four-year career. Both were Michigan records. He also holds the single-season record for both categories, with 23 tackles for 107 yards in losses last year. The Cardinals had only 30 quarter- back sacks last season, and 14 were recorded by linebackers. Starting defensive end John Zook is coming off knee surgery and will be 33 in Septem- ber. Bob Pollard, the other starting defensive end is 32. "I REALIZE nothing's going to be handed to me," Greer said at a news conference. "I know I'm going to have to work hard for anything I get. That's the type of attitude I'm going to have. "I'm happy to be here. I hope I'm here to stay." Greer was the sixth selection in the NFL draft and was the first defensive player selected on the first round by the Cardinals since they took Mike Dawson No. 1 in 1976. The Cardinals finished in the NFC Eastern Division basement last year with a 5-11 record. JOE SULLIVAN, the Cardinals' vice president for operations, said Greer had showed in a special mini-camp for rookies why the Cardinals had him rated as the best defensive end available. "He's going to be a good one," Sullivan said. "It's a very fine contract and as he said he's very happy with it. All he has to worry about now is playing well and he will do that. "We expect a hell of a lot from him. But we were really pleased in the mini- camp because he showed us everything the scouts said about him was true." GREER, who did not get involved in the contract negotiations that were handled by his agent, Michael Troup, was forced to miss a three-day mini- camp for veterans becauseHof a pulled muscle. "I knew I wanted to play here," Greer said. "I'm happy it's over with." The Cardinals had already signed four of their other draft picks - tight end Doug Marsh from Michigan, quar- terback Rusty Lisch from Notre Dame, linebacker Ben Apuna from Arizona State and defensive back Dupree Bran- ch from Colorado State.
