White Sox' Tim Anderson Leaves Game With Injury After Awkward Collision

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson experienced discomfort in his left knee during Monday's game against the Minnesota Twins. He was removed from the game early, first in the fourth inning and then in the sixth inning, due to soreness in the same knee.

Anderson's injury occurred during a rundown play in the fourth inning when he was hit by a baserunner while attempting to control a wayward throw. Despite managing to walk off the injury and continue playing for the fourth and fifth innings, Anderson did not return to the field for the sixth inning. He finished the game 0-for-3 with a strikeout.

Further evaluation of Anderson's condition is expected to be provided by the White Sox, and he is currently considered day-to-day for Tuesday's game.

Through 10 games this season, the 29-year-old has been his normal self, slashing a robust .318/.348/.432, with four RBIs, five stolen bases, and nine runs scored. Photo Credit: Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports
