Well, Tim Anderson was the only one to show up for the Chicago White Sox Saturday night as he smashed two home runs in their 8-4 loss to the Minnesota Twins.
Anderson had three extra-base hits, driving in two with his solo blasts and scoring three runs. Anderson now has two career multi-home run games.
Second career multi-home run game for Anderson, as just announced in the pressbox by @RayG_Garcia

The first came on Opening Day against the Kansas City Royals.
The second was tonight, smacking two shots to left field.

Unfortunately Anderson was most of the offense, as the White Sox only scored once in the first on an RBI-single by Jose Abreu and another run in the fifth on a ground ball double play.
Hector Santiago started for the White Sox and was roughed up by the Twins, who jumped out to a 3-0 lead after the top of the first inning. Santiago only lasted 3.1 innings, allowing all eight earned runs.
