WEB Angels’ Anthony Rendon leaves game with left hamstring injury
Key Highlights:
*- WEB Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon left Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers with a left hamstring injury.
- Rendon had to be helped off the field in the second inning after singling and advancing to second base.
- The Angels have not yet provided an update on the severity of Rendon's injury.
What happened?
Rendon singled to right field with one out in the second inning and advanced to second on a groundout by Shohei Ohtani. He then stole third base and scored on a sacrifice fly by Jared Walsh.
Rendon appeared to injure his hamstring while running to first base on his single. He grabbed the back of his left leg as he rounded first base and was immediately removed from the game.
What does this mean for the Angels?
Rendon's injury is a big blow to the Angels, who are already without Mike Trout (calf) and Noah Syndergaard (elbow). Rendon is one of the team's best hitters and his absence will be felt.
The Angels will likely call up a player from Triple-A Salt Lake to take Rendon's place on the roster. Matt Duffy and Jack Mayfield are two possibilities.
How long will Rendon be out?
The Angels have not yet provided an update on the severity of Rendon's injury. However, hamstring injuries can be tricky and it is possible that Rendon could miss significant time.
What's next?
The Angels will continue their series against the Dodgers on Wednesday night. Reid Detmers will start for the Angels, while Tony Gonsolin will start for the Dodgers.
