Topsy Jackson Blanks Providence, 4-0
Goose eggs were the order of the day for the Providence Patriots as starter Topsy Jackson shut them out, 4-0, at Railmen's Yard. The Reading pitcher struck out 9 and walked 0 while allowing 6 hits.

"Jackson was good but he wasn't flawless," Providence manager Kevin Ord said. "We had a few opportunities to make something happen and we didn't do it. Not to take anything away from Reading, but this is on us."

Jackson has made 7 starts this season, posting 4 wins and 2 losses. Opposing clubs are batting .292 against him and he has 47 strikeouts in 64.2 innings with a 2.23 ERA.
