One evening when I was working at the radio station

during a rare San Francisco electrical storm, a listener called in a panic—she had never experienced thunder and lightning before and wasn’t sure what she was supposed to do. “Should I evacuate? What if the house is struck by lightning?” It was good she got a native Midwesterner answering the phone to reassure her.

A bad (auto) translation

of an article in a Mexican newspaper. I think the better translation would have been something along the lines of ‘patrolling the outfield’ (or cruise ship)

by As Fan in the Bronx on May 6, 2008 9:09 PM PDT up reply actions  

Not really a bad translation

The Spanish word for outfielder is something like “patroller”. The translate-bot made that “patrol-craft”. Note that it refers to any outfielder, not just a CF.

Full phrase is “Marabino patrol-craft”. Marabino is the name for someone from Maracaibo, which CarGon is (and also Quiroz, Orioles catcher).
