ARLINGTON, Texas - Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson had his suspension for making contact with an umpire late last month cut from three to two games. 

Anderson sat out the afternoon game at the Texas Rangers to begin the suspension, which will end with the first game of a doubleheader at Kansas City on Tuesday.

Leury Garcia, primarily a second baseman, was in Sunday's starting lineup at shortstop. 

Major League Baseball suspended Anderson for three games initially (and fined him an undisclosed amount) for making contact on July 29 with plate umpire Nick Mahrley during an argument. Anderson appealed, and his suspension was reduced.
