White Sox Shortstop Tim Anderson Suspended First Two Games of Season

White Sox All-Star shortstop Tim Anderson will miss the first two regular season games next week due to a suspension he received from an incident last season, he says.

Back on Sept. 27, 2021, the White Sox and Tigers cleared the benches and got into an altercation on the field.

During this incident, Anderson made contact with an umpire sparking the original three-game suspension and a $10,000 he says fine he received. Anderson, at the time according to the Chicago Sun-Times, said he didn’t know he bumped into umpire Tim Timmons.
