Nationals place Anthony Rendon on 15-Day DL; select Emmanuel Burriss from Triple-A

Washington Nationals' 2B/3B Anthony Rendon was placed on the 15-Day DL with a "left quadriceps strain" and the Nats called Emmanuel Burriss up from Triple-A Syracuse to take his spot on the roster.

Matt Williams talked before the Washington Nationals' series finale with the Atlanta Braves about both Bryce Harper and Anthony Rendon being out of the lineup. Though he declined to go into detail about Harper's absence after the 22-year-old outfielder pulled up with what looked like a flare up of the hamstring issue that's been bothering him late in Wednesday's extra innings game, he did go into some detail about what was bothering Rendon.
