Anderson allowed two runs on three hits and a pair of walks while striking out three across five innings against the Royals on Tuesday. He didn't factor into the decision.

Anderson turned in a decent outing, but his teammates failed to provide enough run support. The left-hander allowed the first run to score on a sacrifice fly to Andrew Benintendi in the first. His second run came via a solo homer off the bat of Jorge Soler in the fourth. Anderson, making his second start following a two-week stint on the injured list due to a bone bruise in his right knee, has compiled a 4.26 ERA and 1.37 WHIP across 14 outings.
