Rockin' at Old RFK

WASHINGTON — RFK Stadium is shaking again. Oh, the interior corridors are still dim and cramped. Exposed wires and pipes run along the ceilings. Going out for a hot dog feels as though you’re squeezing through a basement.
But back in the seats, when the home team gets it going, the 40-something ball yard shimmies like the old days when the Washington Redskins were on the move. Now, it’s the Washington Nationals who are moving D.C. area sports fans — and vice versa.
“When the fans start jumping up and down, what’s great is you can see the stadium actually going up and down,’’ says Chad Cordero, the ace reliever for the Nationals, who have led the National League East since early June
