Ah, baseball season. CNN's Carol Costello is traveling to various Spring Training sites across Arizona and Florida, and things got a little weird at the end of this segment with Carlos Diaz. Diaz asked Costello how many hot dogs she can eat in a nine inning game, and Costello answered "I think I can pack away about 12".

Diaz's response? "I'm suddenly impressed, and I'm not going to lie, a little turned on". I'm not sure why exactly Diaz is turned on… because of Costello's "one of the boys" ability to eat copious amounts of meat in a short time period, or because of the obvious sexual connotation involved.

The b/r logo spinning over Diaz's shoulder adds a certain layer of irony to it all, as does the fact CNN still happily has the video up on their YouTube page.
