Mike Jackson (right-handed pitcher)

Last updated

I know it's a numbers game and nothing I could control, but I was disappointed that I had to sit at home [for the 2003 season]. If teams want to base their decision about me on spring training as opposed to what I’ve accomplished over the years, then I don’t know what to say. [26]

In his last professional season, Jackson signed as a non-roster invitee with the Chicago White Sox. For the season, Jackson recorded an ERA of 5.01, allowing 31 runs over 46.2 innings pitched. [1] The White Sox released Jackson on September 2, 2004. [27]

Personal life

Jackson is married to Tammy Jackson and has four children: Lindsay, Ryan, Amber (Scott) and Michael. [17] In 2017, Jackson represented the Indians at the MLB draft. [28]
