White Sox's Tim Anderson: Plates a pair in Wednesday victory

Anderson went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run in Wednesday's 9-6 victory over the Twins.

Analysis:

He plated Avisail Garcia and Tyler Saladino with a sixth-inning single, which was preceded by a fifth-inning two-bagger. Although he also went down on strikes in his other three at-bats, the effort still represented Anderson's third straight multi-hit outing, and extended his hitting streak to six games. The 23-year-old has certainly put together a solid start to his major league career since being called up on June 10, slashing .293/.293/.500 with six doubles, a triple, three homers, five RBI and a pair of stolen bases over his first 82 major league at-bats. The lack of walks and contact issues could lead to some slumps, but on the whole, the production should be worth a roster spot in most formats.
