Cabrera's career is particularly noteworthy because he became the first Spanish-born major leaguer and the first from the continent of Africa when he made his Major League Baseball debut for the St. Louis Cardinals on May 16, 1913. He was hitless in two at-bats and never played in another MLB game.
Cabrera played in the Cuban League from 1901 to 1920 and was elected to the Cuban Baseball Hall of Fame in 1942. He also managed in the Cuban League and won a championship in the winter of 1915/16 as manager of the Almendares team.[1]

gollark: Of course, there's a problem with that in that it might print a new message in the middle of you typing one. So you'd need to display the input bit and printing of messages on different parts of the screen, and I am not good at that and don't know how to do it in OC.
gollark: Make one thread do the reading/broadcasting in a loop, make the other thread do the listening-for-modem-messages/printing in a loop.
gollark: Er, no.
gollark: It sounds like you want to run the `read`ing and `print`ing bits in parallel. Maybe look at the thread(s) library? I think that's usable for that sort of thing.
gollark: There's not really any particularly good reason I can think of to use CC non-T at this point.
