Hi Ken!
Not a designer, but do you care if the part tilts during wave? If you want to
be sure that it stands straight up, 90-degrees to the board surface, you'll want to off-set the middle pin so you'll have a "tripod" to keep the part straight.

Designers,
Can PR35 package (Extended TO-92) be loaded without bending the pin?
This part is a leaded part with 3 pins and they are 50 mils apart. How
should I design the holes, straight in-line or off-set the middle pin?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
re,
Ken Patel
