Top story on channel 4, ditto for 5 and 7.  Top story on ESPN 
Sports-Center, over-shadowing the 3 home runs Carlos Delgado of the 
BlueJays hit.

I've always wondered--given that neither Tomo Ohka nor Hideo Nomo speak 
English, how do the other players and the sportswriters communicate with 
them?  Tonight, Nomo had an interpreter-- but I doubt he always travels 
with one...
