Nationals catcher Paul Lo Duca had what the team called "an orthroscopic partial meniscectomy for a torn medial meniscus in his left knee." I believe that is doc-speak for "he had some stuff cleaned up."

Ben Shaffer, the Nats orthopedist, performed the operation at Sibley Memorial Hospital right here in the District. Lo Duca will begin a workout program later this week, and he's expected to miss somewhere between four and six weeks.
