Nationals place Rendon (elbow) on injured list
The Washington Nationals placed third baseman Anthony Rendon on the 10-day injured list with a left elbow contusion Tuesday.
The move is retroactive to Saturday.
Rendon was hit by a pitch against the Marlins on April 20, but Washington opted not to place him on the injured list. He missed four games before returning Friday against the Padres, but missed the next three games.
Rendon, who had a 17-game hitting streak end when he was injured, is hitting .356 this season with 6 home runs and 18 RBIs.
He joins two other members of the team's starting infield on the IL: first baseman Ryan Zimmerman and shortstop Trea Turner.
