About 9 p.m. Friday, Stafford sheriff’s deputies were called to a CVS Pharmacy on Garrisonville Road (Va. 610) by an employee who said he had fake order for a prescription.
A call from the pharmacy to the doctor’s office listed on the order also revealed the order was fake, and that’s when deputies posted outside the pharmacy and waited for the suspect to return, said Stafford sheriff’s spokesman Bill Kennedy.
Sandy Leon got the Nationals (14-22) on the board in the second inning, with some help from Steven Souza’s speed. After Souza walked with one out, he stole first base when Matusz paid him no mind. After J.P. Ramirez flied out to center for the second out, Souza also took off with a 1-2 pitch to Leon. Leon lined it to left field, scoring Souza and staking the Nats to a 1-0 lead.
Matusz, the Orioles’ ace, made his first rehab start recovering from a ribcage injury. He went four innings, threw the prescribed 60 pitches, and found a nice groove. He allowed one earned run on two hits, with a pair of strikeouts and two walks.

His single to left field scored the speedy Perez all the way from first to cap a seesaw ballgame and send the Potomac Nationals (14-21) to a 5-4 win. With a win in their final at-bat for the second straight day, the P-Nats secured their second series win of 2011 in dramatic fashion.
Remarkably, Perez was not the only number-nine hitter who went four-for-four on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Woodbridge. His Wilmington counterpart Deivy Batista also had four knocks in as many trips to the plate. Destin Hood continued his hot streak and he, too, was four-for-four.
