Tim Anderson’s Wife Accuses Josh Donaldson Of Making Racist Comment During Game

The bad blood between the White Sox and Yankees continued on Saturday afternoon.

During the Yankees’ win, third baseman Josh Donaldson was caught on camera getting into a heated war of words with Sox shortstop Tim Anderson in-between innings.

Shortly after the game ended, Tim Anderson’s wife, Bria, seemed to accuse Josh Donaldson of saying something racist that caused the disagreement.

It’s 2022 — are we seriously still dealing with racist remarks in baseball?!

After White Sox manager Tony La Russa also claimed Josh Donaldson said something of the racist nature to his shortstop, Tim Anderson revealed that he was called Jackie Robinson.

The Yankees would end up winning the game Saturday. But the much bigger story is whatever Josh Donaldson said to Tim Anderson. If he really called the star shortstop Jackie Robinson, I would hope the MLB would consider a suspension or perhaps even a larger consequence.

Obviously, there’s no room for any of that in professional sports.

We’ll continue to track for any more details on this situation.
