Angels place Anthony Rendon on IL with wrist contusion

The Los Angeles Angels placed third baseman Anthony Rendon on the injured list with a contusion in his left wrist Monday, four days after initially suffering the injury on a hit by pitch.

The Angels, who host the crosstown-rival Los Angeles Dodgers for a two-game series beginning Tuesday, are playing some of their best baseball lately, winning 11 of their last 14 games. But Rendon now joins rookie shortstop Zach Neto (oblique strain) and utility infielder Gio Urshela (fractured pelvis) among regulars who have gone down in the last week.
