- It's time for a new "birther" movement in the nation'scapital. Make Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez produce a document proving heis 39 years old and not 29. Maybe his best evidence is the endless stream of opponents whocan conjure long-ago memories of Rodriguez punishing them with hisbat and arm. Sunday's highlight was a two-run single off Dan Runzler in theeighth inning that sealed a 5-2 Nationals victory. Rodriguez alsosingled and scored against a wobbly Matt Cain to break a 2-2 tie inthe fourth. In the top of the eighth, after Buster Posey's one-outwalk, the aged catcher threw a strike to second base to thwartpinch-runner Darren Ford's steal attempt.
