Nationals manager Davey Johnson said he held second baseman Anthony Rendon out of the lineup Sunday against the Phillies for precautionary reasons to rest his left forearm, according to The Washington Post. Rendon was seeing flexing and rotating his left forearm after his final at-bat Saturday.
Rendon was deemed to have no problems with his forearm after being evaluated by team physician Dr. Wiemi Douoguih.
"He’s fine," Johnson said.
