reached 50 games -- more than an hour after the game ended.Mejias streak
survived when the official scorer changed a ruling on an error from the third
inning of Class A Lynchburgs 7-5 loss Saturday night in the Carolina
League.Mejia chopped a grounder down the line, and Winston-Salem third baseman
Gerson Montilla missed trying to backhand it for a two-base error. The scorer
changed the play to a double hours later after reviewing video and conferring
with the teams.After reviewing additional data and watching video of the play,
the official scorer decided to rule Mejias batted ball in the third inning a
double, the Hillcats said in a statement. The video review showed that the ball
was struck far enough away from the backhand of the third baseman (Montilla) and
hit with enough force and topspin to prevent Montilla from making the play with
ordinary effort. Based on this, the official scorer changed the error to a
hit.The 20-year-old switch-hitting catcher was 0 for 4 when he drew a full-count
walk with two outs in the ninth and the Hillcats trailing 5-4, apparently ending
his streak. Lynchburg lost in 10 innings without Mejia batting again.Mejias
string is the longest ever in pro ball by a catcher, surpassing Harry Chozens
49-game streak in the Southern Association in 1954.The professional hitting
streak record is 69 games by Joe Wilhoit of the Western League in 1919.

the Nashville Predators. PORTLAND, Ore. -- Certain members of the Golden State
Warriors didnt take too kindly to the props LeBron James used at his annual
Halloween party over the weekend.The part they took exception to was a skeleton
James had stationed on a stage with 3-1 Lead inscribed on the bass drum head, a
clear shot at the Warriors squandering a 3-1 series lead in the 2016 NBA
Finals.In January, before the Warriors first visit to Quicken Loans Arena since
winning the 2015 title there, Cavaliers players felt Curry was disrespectful in
saying he hoped the visiting locker room?still smelled like champagne.I dont
think they like that Steph [Curry] said that, Warriors guard Shaun Livingston
told ESPN. ... Guys see it and everybody feels their own way about it, but it
just fuels everybody for the next time we play them.Maybe this was James way of
issuing some payback.Draymond Green just flashed a massive smile when ESPN asked
him about James skeleton prop.More power to them, he said. I already got enough
fuel. I dont need more. Enjoy.Klay Thompson, visibly irritated by the subject,
sternly told ESPN, Man, I dont care about that.Curry simply said, Im just going
to keep it quiet. He then shook his head and giggled.Kevin Durant even chimed
in, although he wasnt a member of the Warriors last season. However, he knows
what it feels like to be up 3-1 only to lose the next three games. He said he
doesnt want to get involved in the bback-and-forth shots.dddddddddddd.Im a
basketball player, bro. Im a basketball player, Durant told ESPN. If youve got
any disputes or any feuds or anything with anybody that plays the game, lets
just check it up. That really dont mean s--- to me, all the jokes.Durant said he
can empathize with how both teams are feeling about this situation.I wasnt here
last year, but I obviously know from being on the team, you dont want to see
nothing like that [from Cavs], he said. Me personally, its just jokes because
you still have to play. Just like Im sure there were so many jokes that went on
about Cleveland and LeBron over the years, and you still have to play on the
court. So none of that s--- matters until you duke it out on the court.I
understand why anybody would [be angry], and I understand what LeBron is coming
from. If you won a championship for your city and you did it in historic
fashion, its something that youll never forget. So, no hard feelings. I
understand where both sides are coming from, I guess.These two teams will meet
for the first time this season on Christmas Day in Cleveland. There will be no
love lost.All it is is more fuel for the fire, Livingston said. Thats it. Were
not going to say, All, thats great, we like it. But it is what it is. Its part
of the sport. ' ' '
