Tim Anderson of the Chicago White Sox was removed from Wednesday's game against the San Francisco Giants after being refused a timeout at the plate. Anderson was on a 1-2 count against Giants pitcher Logan Webb in the third inning of the White Sox's 7-3 victory at Guaranteed Rate Field when he looked to attempt to request a timeout and stepped out of the box entirely. However, umpire D.J. Reyburn did not halt the game, Webb delivered a strike, and Anderson was called out. Anderson was obviously upset and began yelling at Reyburn as he strode back to the dugout. Reyburn swiftly removed him from the contest. When Anderson was removed from the game, the White Sox led 2-1. After Hanser Alberto hit an RBI single and Luis Robert Jr. hit an RBI double in the fifth, they increased their advantage to 7-1, and Yoan Moncada and Gavin Sheets combined to drive in three runs in the seventh. The White Sox's third victory in six games this season took them back to.500 on the season. The Giants, who are now 2-3, will finish their series against the White Sox on Thursday before hosting Kansas City on Friday.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
