Washington Post writer Adam Kilgore reports that his colleague at the Post, writer Jorge Castillo, was at the Potomac Nationals’ game today to watch Nats’ catcher and future Hall of Famer Pudge Rodriguez test out the back that sent him to the 15-day disabled list and threatened to force him to miss Stephen Strasburg’s debut, but Kilgore and Castillo provided the following update via Kilgore’s Twitter account (@adamkilgoreWP) late tonight:
“The Post’s Jorge Castillo, in Potomac, reports Rodriguez will indeed play tomorrow. Pudge tells him his back has 'no pain.' #Nats"
