Tim Anderson has had plenty of big hits in his career, but Sunday’s three-run homer against the Yankees was definitely one of the most significant.
With a 2–0 lead in the top of the eighth frame, Anderson was at the plate with Andrew Vaughn and Reese McGuire on base. He homered to right field off of Jonathan Loáisiga’s slider and had a message for Yankee Stadium.
While rounding the bases, Anderson put his finger to his lips and shushed the booing crowd. The big hit is all the more special for the White Sox and Anderson, who have been at the center of controversy with the Yankees this past week.
