Angels overcome five-run deficit to beat Diamondbacks.

Maddon said he hopes the game is a springboard for Rendon, who came into the contest hitting .233 with three homers.

“It’s really big,” Maddon said. “Listen, I don’t care how long you’ve played and how much you’ve accomplished. Confidence can wane at different moments. When it takes a leave of absence it’s tough … It’s all about confidence. I want to believe that game today because those were crispy off his bat. That game today can get him rolling.”

Rendon said he felt no different Saturday than he has all season: “To be honest I feel the same, which is terrifying,” he said, adding that he was more impressed with the Angels reaching the .500 mark.

“Oh man, it’s great to be on the roll we are on,” Rendon said. “The energy level is up. We’re having fun right now.”

Arizona took a 5-0 lead off Los Angeles starter Alex Cobb in the third inning. The Diamondbacks batted around and had six straight hits off Cobb, all coming with two outs. David Peralta drove in two runs with a double, Christian Walker added an RBI double and Eduardo Escobar had an RBI single.

Maddon credited reliever Jose Suarez for keeping the Angels in the game. Suarez threw four innings of one-run ball in relief of Cobb.

“Suarez made that game possible,” Maddon said. “He kind of kept everything in order with the performance he gave.”
