Tim Anderson Retires After Stellar Career | MLB News

Tim Anderson, the 2019 batting champion and two-time All-Star, is retiring after a decade in the majors — not because he wanted to, but because his body couldn’t keep up. Known for his grit and integrity, Anderson spent eight stellar seasons with the White Sox, hitting 98 homers, driving in 350 runs, and swiping 122 bases. After brief stints with Miami and LA, he stepped away last May, admitting the game had become too painful emotionally. He’s been candid about personal battles — including losing a close friend and navigating life with his wife — that reshaped his relationship with baseball. The White Sox will honor him before their Sept. 17 game against Detroit, wearing their iconic “Southside” uniforms for the first time this season — a tribute to a player who left his mark both on the field and the franchise. Now, Anderson looks forward to whatever’s next — and he’s ready to embrace it. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
