Biographical Information

Outfielder Charlie Tilson made his big league debut with the Chicago White Sox on August 2, 2016, just days after having been acquired from the St. Louis Cardinals in a trade for P Zach Duke. He started in centerfield and batted 8th against the Detroit Tigers in his debut. He singled off Anibal Sanchez in his first at-bat in the 3rd, then grounded out in the 4th, but in the 5th, he injured his hamstring trying to catch a double by Miguel Cabrera and had to leave the game. Tests revealed a tear, meaning that he was done for the season. He did not make his return to the major leagues until 2018, when he played 41 games for Chicago, hitting .264.
