Astros' Carlos Correa: Sluggs eight homer of season Sunday
Correa went 1-for-1 with a decisive three-run homer as a pinch hitter during Sunday's 13-inning win over the Angels.
Analysis:
Correa was expected to get the day off, but manager A.J. Hinch opted to give him a pinch-hit appearance, and the shortstop responded by hitting a long ball that was decisive for Houston's win. Correa has gone 5-for-38 (.135) over the past 10 games, but perhaps the home run will boost his confidence as he tries to leave an extended sophomore slump behind him.
