Former New York Mets pitcher Jenrry Mejia says 'divine intervention' saved his life after a devastating earthquake struck Venezuela on 25 June, collapsing the hotel where he was staying just moments after he escaped.
The 33-year-old former MLB reliever, who was in La Guaira while playing professional baseball in Venezuela, recalled how an elevator unexpectedly refused to take him to his sixth-floor room, instead carrying him to the lobby seconds before the building came crashing down.
