Edwin Jackson allowed four runs over five innings in Wednesday's NLDS Game 3 loss to the Cardinals. Jackson looked shaky from the start and wasn't able to settle in against the Cardinals' dangerous attack. And the Washington bullpen didn't fare much better after E-Jax was pulled. After capturing Game 1 in St. Louis, the Nats are suddenly down 2-1 in the five-game set.

Edwin Jackson limited the Phillies to one run in 6 2/3 innings as the Nationals' won Wednesday to clinch the NL's best record. Well, technically they clinched at least a tie with Cincinnati, but they hold the tiebreaker there. The win means the Nats will get the wild card winner, while the Reds face the Giants. The Nationals will also have home-field advantage throughout the postseason. Jackson heads into the postseason 10-11 with a 4.03 ERA.

Edwin Jackson was obliterated in Friday's loss to the Cardinals, allowing nine runs (eight earned) on six hits in just 1 1/3 innings. Jackson also issued four walks in the brief outing and failed to record a strikeout for the first time all season. The Cardinals erupted for five runs in the first, then tacked on another four in the second inning, capped off by a two-run homer from Yadier Molina that chased Jackson from the game. He'll take a 9-11 record and 4.13 ERA into Wednesday's season finale against the Phillies.

Edwin Jackson was impressive in a no-decision against the Brewers on Friday, allowing just one run on six hits over his eight frames. Jackson piled up six strikeouts without issuing a walk in the game. The only mark against him on the night was a solo homer from Jonathan Lucroy in the second inning. He left the game with a 2-1 lead after eight innings, and stood primed to earn his 10th victory, but Tyler Clippard was unable to protect the lead. Jackson will head into Wednesday's start against the Phillies in Philadelphia with a 9-10 record, 3.77 ERA and 162/53 K/BB ratio.

Edwin Jackson had mixed results in a no-decision against the Braves on Saturday, allowing four runs (three earned) on four hits over 5 1/3 innings. He also racked up seven strikeouts in the game while issuing one walk. He had a 4-2 lead heading into the sixth inning, where Martin Prado reached on a throwing error to lead off the inning, but video replays clearly showed that he should've been called out. The Braves made the mistake count, as Jason Heyward followed with a two-run blast to tie the game. He'll take a 9-10 record and 3.89 ERA into Friday's match-up against the Brewers at home.

MLB.com's Bil Ladson reports Edwin Jackson is seeking a muti-year extension from the Nationals. Jackson reportedly turned down a three-year, $30 million offer from the Pirates last offseason, but his long-term standing with the Nationals remains to be seen. "Anything more than a year," Jackson said. "If the team feels they want to keep me, we'll go from there. It's up to ownership."

However, he was yanked in the sixth inning after throwing 106 pitches. While he isn't cruising like he did earlier this season, he has allowed three runs or less in each of his last four starts. He'll carry a 3.56 ERA into a start against the Diamondbacks this weekend.

Edwin Jackson turned in another terrific performance in Thursday's victory over the Brewers, scattering eight hits over seven shutout innings while walking one and striking out four. While he's been a bit overshadowed by the big three in the Nationals rotation, Jackson has pitched very well this season. He's now 6-6 with a 3.52 ERA and 90/35 K/BB ratio over 120 1/3 innings. He'll look to keep the ball rolling when he squares off against Phillies at home on Wednesday.

Edwin Jackson limited the Braves to just one run over seven innings on Saturday, but suffered a tough-luck loss. Jackson gave up just five hits and a pair of walks while matching his season-high with nine strikeouts. His only mistake was a solo homer by Brian McCann in the top of the second inning. While he suffered the loss, it was his longest start since June 11. He'll look for better luck in a start against the Mets next week.

Edwin Jackson was torched for eight runs in three-plus innings by the Rockies on Thursday. Jackson has been one of the game's most consistent starters this season, but he didn't have it today.
