Fans in attendance shared their sentiments, with one longtime supporter saying, “Tim gave everything to this city. He’ll always be a part of Chicago.”
Anderson concluded his farewell by thanking the fans. “To White Sox Nation, thank you for every cheer, every standing ovation. I’ll carry those memories with me forever.”
