Anderson Returned

Anderson (elbow) made his first start of the 2012 season Tuesday pitching seven strong innings of one-run ball and striking out six batters in a winning effort against the Twins.
Spin: Anderson looked sharp in his return to the majors, relying heavily on location (62-of-86 pitches for strikes) and his plus-curveball. It usually takes pitchers a while to fully return to their usual selves after Tommy John surgery, but Anderson didn't skip a beat Tuesday.
