Original Toronto Star caption: Close enough: Kansas City leftfielder Lonnie Smith does a racing dive to get back to first base on a pickoff attempt by Blue Jay pitcher Dave Stieb in the first inning of the final American League championship playoff game at Exhibition Stadium last night. The gall got to first baseman Willie Upshaw just a smi late to rap the fleet SMith who has reached first base after shooting a single into pitchfield as the leadoff man. He was eventually doubled up at second base. [Incomplete]
