Jackson Brilliant%2C Blanks Oilers: Before the game%2C Steve Jackson said he liked his chances. His instincts proved to be right. In a superb outing at Cottage City Grounds%2C the Eagles pitcher whitewashed the Edmonton Oilers 12-0.%0A%0A%22I just had a feeling it was going to be my day%2C%22 Jackson said in the clubhouse afterward. %22My control was awesome. I could throw my cutter even when I was behind in the count.%22%0A%0AThe DeSoto starter held Edmonton scoreless%2C giving up 3 hits while registering 7 strikeouts and issuing 4 walks.%0A%0A%22We didn%27t have very many good at-bats%2C%22 Oilers manager said in his postgame interview. %22When that happens%2C you usually lose.%22%0A%0AThis year Jackson has compiled a 5-7 mark with a 4.41 ERA.
