CHICAGO -- The struggling White Sox got another much-needed boost with the return of a second big bat in three days.
Shortstop Tim Anderson was activated from the 10-day injured list by the White Sox, who recalled right-hander Carson Fulmer from Triple-A Charlotte before a series opener against the New York Mets on Tuesday.
Anderson was in the lineup batting seventh. He entered the game hitting .317 with 11 home runs and 37 RBIs in 70 games before spraining his right ankle on June 25. Anderson was 8-for-23 (.346) with one homer and four RBIs during a five-game injury rehabilitation assignment with Charlotte.
