Tim Anderson Finally Goes Yard In Saturday’s Win
9 months agoChicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians. At long last, Anderson's 96-game homerless odyssey encompassing 419 plate appearances reaches a merciful end. The 30-year-old had improbably not gone deep since July 15, 2022 before finally running into one off a Logan Allen fastball in the first inning of Saturday's outing. Anderson would add on a few more singles for good measure. The two-time All-Star's bat is finally awakening from the doldrums it sat in for the majority of the year as one of fantasy's biggest 2023 busts. Anderson is slashing .351/.413/.439 with one homer, six RBI, and one stolen base through 57 at-bats post-All-Star break. His bat finally triggers on as the trade deadline approaches for the selling White Sox, who have already dealt away Lucas Giolito and Lance Lynn.
