Original Toronto Star caption: Crowd pleaser: Toronto Blue Jay Doug Ault (left) raps a single yesterday during the Toronto team's first appearance in big league baseball. The American League expansion Jays put on a terrific show for 1,988 fans at Grant Field in Dundedin, Fla. They beat New York Mets of the National League, 3-1, in a spring training exhibition game. First pitch was thrown out by Metro Chairman Paul Godfrey (right), who told crowd he felt ''like I'm attending a birth.''
