Tribe encouraged by Anderson's latest start

CHICAGO -- As expected, Cody Anderson returned to Triple-A Columbus after being the 26th man for Monday's Indians doubleheader against the White Sox.

But that doesn't mean the Tribe won't be seeing Anderson again, possibly soon.

Anderson threw seven innings and gave up one run while recording a career-high nine strikeouts in a 5-1 nightcap win.

"Him being in Triple-A changes nothing on how we view him," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "We think he's going to pitch for us for a long time. There's not a lot of pitchers that really come and stay. [Corey] Kluber went back, [Josh] Tomlin went back, [Danny] Salazar went back.
