Watch: Correa takes King Felix deep over Minute Maid Park train tracks

So long. Farewell. Goodbye.
Words Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa was presumably thinking after he absolutely tagged an offering from Seattle Mariners starter Felix Hernandez in the fourth inning Monday.
Correa's shot traveled 449 feet with a launch angle of 31 degrees, according to Statcast, which caused the ball to sail over the train tracks atop the Minute Maid Park roof.
The seams of the ball somehow survived the massacre when it was later discovered by the "AstrosTrainGuy."
