Jackson Near-Perfect Start Boosts Cubs in Win Over Reds
Chicago pitcher Larry Jackson, 33, aims for a 20-win season as he hurls the Cubs to a 1-0 win over Cincinnati. He uses hot weather to sharpen focus, tossing 85 pitches in 1 hour 40 minutes, the fastest NL game of the season, as Pete Rose’s seventh-inning single is the Reds’ lone offense. Joe Jay takes the loss. The Phillies and Giants also win, keeping pace in the NL. In the AL, the Yankees sweep Angels, with Perry starting for the first time this year and Cepeda and Haller powering a Mets stumble.
