Player Profile: Brian N. Anderson

I have three cards of Brian Anderson. This one is from 2007 Upper Deck.

Playing career: Brian Anderson was a backup outfielder for the White Sox and Red Sox from 2005 to 2009. In 355 games he hit .227 with 22 HR and 80 RBI.

My memories: First heard of him from his baseball card.

Where he is now: Unable to stick in the majors as an outfielder, he has tried his hand at pitching, his original position in college. He pitched in the Kansas City organization in 2010 and signed with the Yankees in 2011. He pitched seven games in AA, got hurt, and was released on May 27.

Google Autocomplete results: Brian Anderson Yankees is fifth when you type Brian Ande, between Brian Anderson Dunks, a Nike sneaker, and Brian Anderson Baseball, which could refer to either Brian Anderson.

Coming up next: The next profile will be Bud Anderson.
