agujeros a horcajadas
Explanation:
"To straddle" es literalmente poner una pierna a cada lado, como para montar a caballo. Se emplea para describir puntos a horcajadas de otro punto.
En este caso, los agujeros irán desplazados equidistantes de las líneas centrales vertical y horizontal. o sea, dos agujeros desplazados horizontalmente de la línea vertical, y otros dos desplazados verticalmente de le línea horizontal.
