Living with the good, the bad and the ugly in front of the world while still finding a way to be great living and playing through the good, the bad and the ugly.
Being a public figure or star athlete comes with a lot of highs but it also comes with a lot of eyes when living your life for all to see. Today we are sitting with MLB All-Star Chicago White Sox Short Stop Tim Anderson who has earned the respect on the field as one of the top players in the game and also become a well known face in Chicago for his efforts in the community.
Wanting to chop it up with Tim for awhile now, this conversation comes at a time where recently, the headlines of Tim haven't been about hitting home runs, making double plays or wins and losses but rather about the type of family man he is as a husband and father. Ryan, Channing and Fred open up with Tim in a conversation amongst men about the personal struggles that are faced in marriage, parenting and living life in the public eye. Tim shares his truth about his own journey away from baseball and how despite what goes on off the field, the responsibility to show up and perform every single day for his team, his teammates, the fans and give 100% focus and effort.
Being black in baseball is not the norm and Tim has taken his on field skill and success into creating an opportunity for the sport to embrace the culture. Known for his flare of flipping bats and confident swagger on the field, Tim has carved a niche in the sport allowing young black kids from around the world to realize that playing baseball at this high level can be their reality too.
Sharing stories of growing up in Alabama and pain from his childhood of father being in prison and being raised by his aunt, Tim talks about the importance of being a present dad and active in his children's life and teaching them to grow through love and understanding.

I love the fact of how they are all supportive of Bria and I notice a lot of the baseball players wives like her too. He better stop hurting that woman cause she is a good woman
?
They know they better support the wife if they don't want to have problems at home😂😂😂
Somebody willing to love her the right way
my guy never really mentioned that how he hurt his wife so Ryan had to step in. Then everyone else is basically telling him what he should be saying.
she better chill and get that bag talking bout Tim he doing his job or this wouldn't be happening
Listening to Tim IMO he needs some solid old heads in his circle. Friends with diverse experiences and wisdom not just your homies
Thanks Pivot for also acknowledging that Tim is married to a great woman. Educated , beautiful, runs a business and is a good mom. I hope this interview was seen by her next husband!
I’m 💀…… but facts smh
This comment got me weak 😂😂
😂😂😂
Lmaooooooooo facts
😂😂😂😂😂
Ryan's metaphor about the vase. Nothing but facts. That trust is so shakey.
Yea his speech gave me goosebumps. I’m going through thst right now in my relationship
Facts. Dealing with the ramifications of this type stuff right now. Excellent metaphor. 32:40
Excellent way with the words RC. Real talk. Trust can be shaken at any moment
Channing did a hell of a job making Tim feel comfortable.
He really said “nobody knows what I was going thru” “I was finding myself” 😭🤣 he’s the worst..fine as hell and full of 💩
This left me wanting to hear more from Tim Anderson. Him saying that he hung out by himself when he got to the league really struck me. Wonder how many other players in baseball from his background also felt alone.
I was thinking that as well..probably most of them feel the same
I played ball at the juco level and it’s definitely lonely but it was better when I played with guys that look like me
Same! I was just saying that has to be tough on him. Just never know what people are going through. Hopefully the work he’s doing on himself will help with things
Well it makes a lot of sense because majority of mls are Hispanic Spanish speakers
Imagine the Dominicans that don't even speak english.
"They had me throwing the discus with the Polynesians" Chan funny af 😂😂
If u nosy like me and just came here for the mess!Your welcome😊 28:00-42:40
Thanks because he could have saved the rest of that crap 😂😂😂
Thank uuu😂
Thank you
I loveeeee how respectful and intelligent Ryans questions are! Very well played out👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This was a big brother conference. Need more of this within the culture.
For a team and side of the city that often gets ignored, overlooked, or straight up disrespected at a national level, Tim put the White Sox and, as a result, the Southside of Chicago back in the conversation in a positive way. He gave us an opportunity to finally showcase our love for this team and city on a national level. We don't get an opportunity to do that very often and for that I appreciate TA.
Always thankful to anyone with the courage to share about themselves in the bad. Best of luck to you and your family, Tim.
We need Shannon sharpe on here
I don’t even think the world ready for that !
Been said this
oh HECK NO THIS GROUP OF MEN IS SET DONT MESS UP THE CHEMISTRY
Yes 2 hour show
Bruh YES
They had me throwing discus with the Polynesians 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Chan is a fool love the pivot podcast
I love this…shout out to Bria, the Kids, the Therapist and Tim for his willingness to admit it and get help. We all have done wrong, he’s just on tv. Sometimes the explosion is needed for us to stop and be held accountable. I’ve been each character in this story, praying for there healing.
His face lit right up when he talks about little Seven.
I don't think that he's through with the side chick. I think he's got feelings for her.
Praying for you Tim and Bria that your marriage stays strong.
I spent my childhood with both parents in prison and i had to live with my grandmother and aunt. I was always embarrassed about having incarcerated parents, so it feels cathartic to hear them talk about their experiences and sharing that feeling of “feeling like a burden” to other family members. I know it too well. Even as an adult I push myself to be independent just to avoid that feeling. This is a good interview.
Jose Ramirez 🥊
Great…we need more MLB athletes on the Pivot 😊❤
Was literally just arguing with my cousin yesterday about baseball and blacks
Mookie Betts next
Marcus Stroman next
Sadly no one really cares about mlb athletes its a dying sport
@@Fresh360Waves Yes, definitely Betts. He has a great story!
Ryan does a heck of a job working his way into a tough/uncomfortable conversation!! Mr. Mouthpiece.
Grace is what he needed to speak his truth and is what was given. Awesome interview!!
I loved that the men encouraged him to be a great dad to his son regardless of all this and at the same time still gave props to the wife.
Great episode, I can see Ryan's deep empathy for Tim in his facial expressions in a kindred way and hoping that Tim can read what his soul is telling him as a mentoring spirit. That was amazing to see.
You’re a great person just by your words, I felt everything you just said
Just came here to compare swaggers after watching the fight video for the 78th time! 🙏🏽😂
My son and I rock with Tim and all the black baseball players in the Minors and MLB
💪🏾
Thanks for keeping the sport alive
Tim isn’t perfect, but he’s carrying more than we see. He’s carrying more than he may even realize. I don’t think he has fully unpacked his traumas and may not fully understand what he’s doing against all odds. I think he needs to continue to find positive releases and stay in therapy. God has a plan for his life and is carrying him. I’m rooting for him to continue healing, taking accountability, growing professionally and personally. He can as long as he stays open to help and surrounds hisself with people who will stretch him.
Here after the fight
love that you all protected him...
How did they protect him?
@@CandyGirlLoddy they seem to want them to be messy like TMZ and others.
😅😅definitely because let the side woman tell it, he was just with her end of May outside at a club taking photos. Idk if the marriage therapy is still happening.
@@roszell12 I gotcha. Based on comments the socials, people definitely wanted him to be get ripped. SMH. Like, it’s in the past…let it go.
We need Bria on next.
TA gave me a great moment with my father at the Field of Dreams game. I know he’s going through a lot with him not playing up to his own standards but I will never throw shade at him. I’m forever thankful for him. Cannot wait for this episode ❤
That was one of the best games in recent years in any sport
Thank you, Ryan, for giving Tim the truth about trust in his relationship! It takes a lifetime and a change of priorities and a trust level in yourself to do the right thing when no one is looking and the bright lights aren't on!
Theres so much strength in vulnerability and I love how all of these men are finding healthy ways to showcase emotions and vulnerability as men. We all make mistakes and deserve grace. Its all about accountability. Love this interview
Deep and Hard Conversation and The Pivot crew did a great job of making it comfortable and supportive and big salute to Tim for listening, accepting and taking it all in with poise. Loved this episode!
This is a good interview and I understand why it was needed, I just wish we learned more about Tim Anderson the player and his upbringing rather than what he did in his personal life (as he’s one of my favorite players and I really don’t know that much about him). But again, I understand why this needed to be done first and the significance behind it, hope he can come back on and tell more of his life story!
The interview was mostly not about his scandal, but he had to address it so that he could move on from it.
You must wasn’t paying attention then he talked about what he was comfortable talking about he spoke on his upbringing,his family/father,the difficulties dealing with being a black man playing baseball and to me it seemed like he wanted to do this interview to clear the air on the things that’s been going on in the media about him what more could you ask for
I'm glad TA7 found an outlet to speak as many want to trash him for reasons we all know . Pivot again showcases the best thing on social media.
TA7 keep being great ,ChiSox needs it
This is the safest place for black men or men in general on the internet .
@@Del_116one example how they interviewed and showcased stevewilldoit side of the perkio situation after iamathlete tried labeling him a racist (pretty sure how they got the happy dad sponser)
Amazing interview. S/o to the pivot podcast. As a black man and black father i find the show very therapeutic and real. Mush appreciated, keep up the great work guys
“You got knocked the fuck out….”
Lo😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Smh corny yt boy
He speaking like he completely worked on his self and cut that girl off but was just with her maybe 2-3 weeks ago 😵💫
Hes forever tied with her now because of their child
Shes so pretty I bet it's hard for him to stay away
Great interview! Didn't know much about this young man but to see him become more comfortable as the interview went on shows the comfort level the Pivot provides ❤
Men protecting and supporting and guiding men 😊We love to see it.
Great episode, and just watching it I can tell Tim Anderson needed this talk with the fellas. Wish him and his family nothing but the best.
I miss the days when we didn’t have access to athletes and celebrities personal life.
Ty!
I feel exactly the same
This is the best show yet. Therapy is KEY.. Truly appreciate this. You guys ROCK!!!! ACCOUNTABILITY IS KEY❤️
I’m glad he trusted y’all to do this interview. ❤ I’m sure he deals with temptation everyday as well as the wife understanding this. I’m glad to see he’s apologetic and putting forth effort to make it right.
Tim Anderson got KO’d easily by one punch from Ramirez 😂😂
Glass jaw
that boy cannot fight 😂
He just got KTFO
Who’s here after He got knocked out by Jose Ramirez 😂
Black people loved Baseball so much that WE HAD OUR OWN LEAGUE WHEN NOT ALLOWED TO PLAY MLB!! There are numerous reasons why Black people are not WELCOME in Baseball but if Black people are more involved the sport will see tremendous growth.
Tim da reason I started watchin baseball fr lmao. I always thought it was boring til his walk off during da field of dreams game n now it’s my favorite sport😂
I knew nothing about Tim
Anderson before the start of this. He definitely doesn’t shy away from the real life despite the noise. Shame he feels support isn’t there for him as he faces some adversity. MLB got some catching up to do on NBA and NFL. Hope he gets the next contract so he can develop people like him by giving them the opportunity. Great interview Pivot Podcast
LOVE IT! Thank you guys for putting MLB athletes on the Pivot. Love to see more MLB athletes here.
Another gem of an episode!!! My Nupe will sometimes have some long questions but they are always so thoughtful and thought provoking!!!
Long live The Pivot!!! Job well done gentlemen and God Bless!!!
What an excellent interview. This was the perfect environment for Tim to address the scandal and get it out of the way. Very nurturing. I don't know these men to call them by name, but the two oldest ones were so knowledgeable and willing to share the wisdom with genuine love. Awesome!
He seems like he needs more counseling.This MAN is lonely and isolated. He needs his Brothers . We all need support and genuine friendship.
Tim seems like a good man, I loved this interview!!
Great interview!! I’ve followed TA for 5 yrs now! He’s a great athlete.I absolutely love what he and his wife did/do for the community! I wont judge his personal situation, nobody’s perfect, we’re all human!!!
Been trying to avoid the rumors and drama out of respect for the situation. I appreciate being able to hear TA's life perspective from his heart. Good stuff
I really dig these Brothers interviewing style. Much appreciated😊
ThePivot don’t miss‼️ Loved this conversation. Been a fan of TA7 for a while now.
We all got a story. We all have made mistakes. And a lot of us learned from them. And that’s what it’s about at the end of the day. Learning from those mistakes and being better.
Growth. Accountability. Consistency
Good morning to THE PIVOT and everyone involved with the show and to everyone that follows. Grand Slam once again to Tim Anderson Jr keep putting the Wark and living your truth in your journey of life with your family.
Great interview. It's hard to make mistakes in public. I hope he understands that the wealth he obtains can't be increased with multiple outside kids. I hope he continues to grow.
TA has long been my favorite player as a Sox fan. He’s still that guy, unfortunately injuries seem to have caught up to him this year, but I think he’s got a get back season in him🤷🏼♂️
This is the third time I watched this interview! Nothing but respect for my guys on the Pivot! Tim thanks for being authentic. Praying for you and your wife. 🙏🏽💪🏽💙💙💙💙❤️🔒
Great Episode and I Definitely Love That Yall Incorporated Baseball. Rooting for Tim especially because there arent that many of us in the major leagues.
I’m glad Tim Anderson came unto this show. I’m was and still am a fan of his. His journey and him holding his accountability speaks volume. It’s amazing how people act like their car doesn’t stink and they don’t make mistakes. Big ups Tim and Pivot. I want the Braves to get him but I’ll continue to follow him wherever he goes.
MLB is my favorite sport. And my son is a beast at baseball. We watched this together. 🔥🔥💪🏽
I remain so ampt a viewer of the show the pivot is important to promote our culture it makes me proud to see great content, keep it fresh and I will continue to support your great platform shout out to RC, Great inspirational spokesman, I have must respect, for ya God Bless you!
This man. Has learned his lesson. He will keep the family together. And will be the upmost husband and father to his children. We Cannot judge him. He owes us nothing. Only to win games. Period ❤
This podcast is legendary. Amazing guests and great interviews every time.
I think he did great in this interview. He started off a little nervous but warmed up.
I know you guys probably have lots of podcast interviews lined up but I think it would be great to get Travis Rudolph on here after all he’s been through in live and in this case.
Again… Ryan is Amazing. His words and support means everything and he’s not even talking to me lol. Another great episode OG’s.
LUV!!!! Y'all knocked it out the park having Tim. As a Chicago guy and White Sox fan this young Brother is a beast. Plus he does give back, we've seen it many times.
One of my favorites!! I hope my Dodgers sign him this off season!! Another great episode of the Pivot!
So proud of this young man. I will watch his games more because of this podcast. Prayers going up for continued health and success.❤
I’ll say this… he as nervous when they asked him the real questions. Still and all he hadn’t spoken up for his wife and the shame the side chick placed at his wife’s feet… so wrong!!!!! I respect all of the interviewers… especially Brandon… for asking the hard questions and I thank all 3 of them for constantly mentioning and respecting Tim’s WIFE, BRIA!!!!!! Not one time did Tim speak to the love and respect and sorrow he has for his wife and the pain he’s caused her! Tim is full of it for sure!!!! He’s so focused on being careful when it comes to him speaking up for the love he has for his wife. So wrong!!!! So wrong!!
That is not your damn husband be quiet. You want him to respond in a way that YOU DEEM ACCEPTABLE and you’re literally a nobody in this situation. Get your own man.
You’re too invested… go outside and breathe some air. They don’t know you
You do know those things were spoken in therapy right? Tim doesn’t owe you a thing. You are just nosey and want to know what was said behind the scenes. You can tell the man still has a hard time communicating
So if he did say how he cared for his wife, your response would still be negative because then it’ll be well if cared about her he shouldn’t have cheated. He doesn’t have to speak on everything somethings need to be left alone. I don’t like how ppl can comment on another person’s life, but if it was you,you wouldn’t be looking at the same way.
And you’d say this after his side chick put info out there to the world and all special media outlets picked it up. Nosey… tell me WHY are you here. No I’m just speaking truth. Tim laid and slept around without a condom… and brags about a child he made with a sidechick and I AM NOSEY?!! Really… he didn’t need therapy to cheat or make another baby… GTOH…. he’s a dead beat and he’s gonna keep in until the leagues pull rank on him! Not a good look for bands all- a family sport! Give a negro some cash and they bring drama everytime! Yes! Humiliate your wife and kids- you’re rich now and you can do what you want! SMH
One of the most talented ballplayers out rn. Hopefully this brother can stay healthy because he’s a beast if he’s on the field
I’m happy he did this interview to give perspective to what happened. He made a mistake and they seem to be working through it. Respect ❤
I love how they interview all their guest. Loved this podcast from the beginning.
I haven't seen a baseball player with so much swag since the young Eric Davis.
Wtf lol that's because you don't watch or play baseball. Barry Bonds is king of swag. This dude has very little swag in comparison. You must be a bot AI
He's a keeper Chicago!!! Great interview as usual. The Pivot!!!❤🙏🏾
This was a super dope episode. Keep up the great work RC, Fred, Chan......I salute you all 100 percent.
Another DOPE one fellas🔥🔥Humble and mild mannered young fella. Respect and much more success to all y'all boys.🙏🏾💯
Yeah buddy!! Finally some love for Chicago scene. South Side Pride!!
The host are always respectful which is why ppl feel comfortable coming on the podcast but I felt like they could’ve got in Ass a tiny bit more. Also realize he seems a lil bit lost didn’t realize he was as young as he is. Good episode
Pause
Tim seems like he is a Good Man he is also young and has a lot of past Pain, Hurt, and Trauma. Being a Young Married Man, dealing with Past Trauma, and dealing with the loneliness he said he was feeling is a lot. We all make Mistakes and hopefully he has learned from his. Hopefully he stays in Therapy and continue to work on himself and his Marriage.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS INTERVIEW!!!❤
I APPLAUD A MAN ACKNOWLEDGES HIS CHILDREN NO MATTER HOW THEY GOT HERE!
TIM ANDERSON DOESN'T OWE THE PUBLIC AN EXPLANATION.
TELL THEM GET A DNA KIT!!!
A LOT WILL BE SURPRISED ABOUT THEIR OWN FAMILY BUSINESS!!!
People say he hasn't taken accountability. How do you define accountability is it when it suits your narrative, or should he come out crying and rolling on the floor before you accept him for what he is.
The young man said he and his wife are working through it and wanting to be a better person.
That's him taking accountability,
Right…this man probably took accountability during their therapy sessions. Just because he’s not crying on camera doesn’t mean he didn’t take accountability behind closed doors
He let them mention his daughters and acted as though his son doesn't exist.
@@smartkookie he did not act like his son didn’t exist. Stop the 🧢
@smartkookie his son's name is Seven, and they mentioned his name multiple times .Please rewatch and listen with an open mind
@@hillaryetokhana636 Okay I stand corrected. I fell asleep while this was playing. I heard it. Thanks for informing me.
I so love this...Compassion and encouraged accountability. We all need that!
We love this! We support this! We are Florida Minority Baseball Alliance, a committed group of First-Class coaches and community leaders prepared to synergize our efforts to connect, educate and promote the game of baseball to minority players, parents, and coaches across the State of Florida.
Dope interview by my shortstop. Racist White Sox fans been trying to bury him this year but the real ones are still rocking with him and the bounce back is gonna be beautiful. Never heard of this podcast but these guys have a new subscriber in me. ✊
This is the one
Pivot i love y’all
I need an interview with each of y’all
I'm from Chicago, I'm a white sox fan. I always liked TA, and now I'm a bigger fan of his. Great interview @the pivot! Love the show.
The interviewers seem to be men who have done “the work” . They spoke more highly of Bria than her husband during this interview . I understand life has its ups and downs as does marriage but I can never understand how the “l was going through a lot and lonely “ is the excuse for cheating . He had a wife and two girls and was lonely . Then had a side chick , around her kids and a new baby. Did that change the loneliness or only added to “all that he was going through” . He talked of all this new drama with his side chick blasting their business like it was nothing . Never calling her out . Never really apologizing or showing remorse for his wife . He is playing both sides even in this interview . Why bother coming on to talk and not say much of anything lol
This💯
THE TRUTH!!!!!
This !!!
I enjoyed this interview and the rawness displayed
Great athlete but the accountability of owning his infidelities and the hurt of both woman was lame. We all go thru things but we don’t intentionally hurt ppl we love continuously. This is pacifying the situation.
Both women? So she didn’t know he was married? Lmao
The only hurt one is his wife. That broad knew he was married, and when she figured out he wasn’t going to leave his wife. Her bird brain self started to harass his wife. So no the sidechick who he demoted to sneaky link gets no sympathy over here
@@treyveonshea at all ! Cause she knew she just keep going.
@@areyanawilliams4661 once she found out who he was she googled him, when you google his name his wedding pictures pops up. So she can go on with that lie
I feel sorry for his son.
My White Sox need to pay this man with the injuries we have! Can't lose this man! Southside!!!
Another really great show! His transparency was tremendous and I wish he and his family continued love, growth and happiness. The interview questions are second to none and yet so real without ever tearing the guest apart. This is like an impromptu visit “from good people you don’t know, but now you’re glad you got a chance to meet so to speak”.😅 The pivot is priceless❤
