The future is bright for Houston Astros rookie shortstop Carlos Correa. The present isn't too shabby, either.

Correa decided to unleash the power portion of his five-tool arsenal on Saturday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, smoking two home runs for the first multi-homer game of his young career.

Jeremy Hellickson was Correa's first victim of the evening, surrendering a sky-high shot into the left field stands in the bottom of the first inning.

Correa continued his barrage in the bottom of the sixth when he took Josh Collmenter deep to right-center for a two-run blast.

Correa finished 2-for-5 with the two jacks and three RBIs in Houston's 9-2 victory.
