Magnificent 7: Rangers retire Pudge’s jersey

The Magnificent Seven was retired on Saturday in an encore performance worthy of Ivan Rodriguez’s induction into the Hall of Fame two weeks ago. Rodriguez’s No. 7 jersey took its place on the façade of the upper deck in left field in ceremonies before the Rangers’ game against the Astros. Rodriguez’s symbolic jersey was hung alongside Nolan Ryan, Johnny Oates and Jackie Robinson as the four numbers retired by the Rangers.
