Tim Anderson began his rehab stint with the Charlotte Knights, giving everybody a chance to re-learn what Anderson looks like when he's not sporting his now-trademarked No. 7.
He looked largely like himself at the plate, going 2-for-4 with a pair of singles, one through each side of the infield. He seemed to take it easy on the basepaths, at least when it came to accelerating out of the box.

As for the other rehabbing member of the Knights, Eloy Jiménez took batting practice as he anticipates coming off the five-day freeze in his rehab stint. He'll play outfield this week if his body allows him.
