Anderson returned to the lineup Tuesday after missing four games and went 2-for-4 with a home run in a 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was primed to be the hero when his third homer of the season in the top of 11th gave the White Sox the lead in extras, but it wasn't meant to be. Prior to being away from the team over the weekend, Anderson had been in and out of the lineup and dropped from the top of the batting order to the seven-hole. Through it all, the struggling young shortstop has hit in five straight contests with multiple hits in three of them. There are still holes in his plate approach, but there are hopeful signs. During Anderson's five-game hit streak, which has pushed his average to .230, he's struck out just three times in 21 at-bats, well below his 23.5 strikeout percentage for the season.
