LOS ANGELES — There was an unusual notation by Anthony Rendon's name on the Angels' lineup card Wednesday afternoon.
"I listed him as a switch-hitter," manager Joe Maddon said with a chuckle.
The not-so-inside joke was a reference to Rendon's homer the previous night. With the Angels leading by 11 runs, rookie Reid Detmers about to complete a no-hitter and position player Brett Phillips pitching for the Tampa Bay Rays in the eighth inning, Rendon batted from the left side for the first time in his career and promptly deposited the ball into the right-field bleachers.
