Monday 7/25/1989: Huge blow for Cleveland's Jackson, career over
CLEVELAND - It was one of baseball saddest days. Cleveland's left-hander Danny Jackson fell victim to a career ending injury in a game against Chicago (A) on Monday.

Team officials were informed later that Jackson had suffered a Torn Bicep Muscle. This season Jackson compiled an ERA of 4.84, going 7-4 in 7 starts. He fanned 58 while giving up 87 hits in 70.2 innings. His career featured a record of 41-29 with an ERA of 3.99. Baseball will certainly miss this great player.
