Rendon, Angels look to avoid sweep vs. Dodgers

The Los Angeles Angels will host the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday afternoon in Anaheim, Calif., in the final game of the three-game Freeway Series, hoping that the recent emergence of third baseman Anthony Rendon is not too late in this shortened season.

Rendon signed a seven-year, $245 million contract with the Angels in the offseason, but he did not get off to a good start. An oblique injury kept him out of the first four games, and then once he began playing, he slumped.

Rendon had just four hits across 39 at-bats in 12 games, with no home runs.
