Angels Lockup Jackson for 5 Years

12/14/1982 -The California Angels filled their third baseman position for the next 5 years when they signed Ron Jackson to a 5-year, $3.5M contract today. Jackson left the Angels after the '81 season and signed a 1-year free agent contract for $188K but he parlayed that into a big payday. This past year with Oakland, Jackson hit .307/.340/.468 with 16 HR's and 82 RBI's. He'll take the place of Roy Howell who became a free agent at the end of the season.
