Edwin Jackson simply dominated the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday, pitching eight spectacular innings of two-hit ball to lead the Detroit Tigers in a 3-0 shutout.
Jackson (5-3, 2.30 ERA) allowed only three men to reach base and faced only two hitters over the minimum. The 25-year-old righty fanned seven over 101 pitches before skipper Jim Leyland cock-blocked the opportunity for his second career complete game just an inning too early. Boooo!
Tigers closer and scariest mofo in all of baseball, Fernando Rodney, who has not allowed a run in his last seven outings, came in to earn his 10th save in 10 attempts and complete the two-hitter while the Tigers enjoyed their big-league best seventh shutout of the season.
