NFBC Message Boards

Andrew McCutchen will lose the longest current hitting streak after the Major League Baseball scoring committee on Thursday reviewed and changed his double on Saturday against the Mets to an error on third baseman Daniel Murphy.



McCutchen will also lose his two RBIs on the play, while the two earned runs charged to Mets starter R.A. Dickey will now be unearned.



The center fielder singled and scored in the sixth inning on Thursday against Houston to extend what was originally a 15-game hitting streak -- now four games -- as the Pirates squeaked out a 5-4 win to sweep the Astros.





I assume this will be corrected?

Yes, STATS knows about this scoring change and I think it has been done already. If not, it will be done soon. Thanks for the heads up.

This change has already been applied to all NFBC leagues. Just a heads up on that.
