Career

Cianfrocco was drafted twice, first by Pittsburgh Pirates in 11th Round (259th overall) of the 1986 amateur entry draft, then by the Montreal Expos in 5th Round (122nd overall) of the 1987 amateur entry draft. He elected not to sign with Pittsburgh, but after one season of college baseball at Purdue,[1] he signed with Montreal in 1987. The Expos traded him to the San Diego Padres in 1993 for pitcher Tim Scott. After his MLB career, Cianfrocco played a season in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) for the Seibu Lions.

While playing for the Padres, he had multiple fan clubs, including "Archi's Army" and the "CianfrocCrew". On Hall of Fame Weekend August 4, 1997, he won the Home Run Derby in Cooperstown.[2]

Cianfrocco was the Padres' batter facing Tom Browning when the Cincinnati Reds pitcher broke his arm while delivering a pitch.

He currently resides in San Diego, California, and is the OEM Sales Manager at Seagate Systems.[3]

Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Wrong, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
gollark: I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Wrong, is in fact, GNU/Wrong, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Wrong. Wrong is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
