The Angels have placed third baseman Anthony Rendon on the 10-day injured list with a left groin strain.
Rendon suffered the injury on a throw in Saturday’s 15-1 blowout loss, and was scratched from Monday night’s lineup against the Royals.
Getting the start in Rendon’s absence will be utility man Jose Rojas. The hometown kid is one of the best stories of the season, having scratched and clawed his way to an MLB roster. He’s still looking for his first big-league hit (0-for-8, 9 PA).
