Original Toronto Star caption: Putting it to the A's: Otto Velez, left, and Alvis Woods had a field day as Blue Jays trounced the Oakland A's, 12-1. Velez, who has been walking over the opposition in the American League this season, had a single, a double and a triple to drive in three runs while Woods connected at the plate for two singles and a home run and five runs batted in. The victory moved the Jays to within a half-game of the first-place Yankees.
