The 55-53 White Sox and the 44-65 Royals square off in a doubleheader at Kauffman Stadium, the first game starting at 3:10.
After being suspended on Sunday, shortstop Tim Anderson will reportedly be out with an injury for most of the remaining regular season.

With the White Sox two games back of the AL Central-leading Twins, Anderson’s injury is a major offensive loss for a team that has scored three or fewer runs in seven of its last 12 games.
