Anderson went 3-for-4 with his first career walk in Thursday's one-run victory over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson singled in each of his first two trips to the plate, giving him 10 multi-hit performances in his first 19 MLB games. The 17th overall pick in 2013 also made a sterling defensive play with one out in the second inning, throwing out Trevor Plouffe from six feet into the outfield grass with a perfect one-hop throw to first. And for good measure, Anderson drew career walk No. 1 in the fourth in his 86th plate appearance overall. The rookie has made a clear statement, with both his bat and glove, that he has no plans of returning to the minors. He's hitting .314/.322/.512 with six doubles, a triple and three home runs since joining the team on June 10.
