Carlos!
Correa!
Prior to that HR by Correa, the Astros were 3 for their last 39 w/RISP
So they’re now 4 for 40.
We’re through four…2-0 Astros
Great job, HH!
One thing I always have appreciated about Carlos is that he is willing to go the other way with power.

Seems to do so more when he’s going well. When he struggles, he seems to try to pull everything. It’s great to see him do it, I hope it’s a sign of things to come.

That’s pretty much true of every slumping hitter. Correa has always had a good opposite-field approach, especially in clutch situations. Like you said, when he’s going good, he’s never been afraid to drive the ball to right field and right center.
True.
Straw with a leadoff double in the 5th
Altuve hit by pitch. So there it is
Bases juiced for McCormick
McCormick works the count full, and flies out to LF, Straw tags and scores

Bregman with an RBI double!
Tucker reaches on an E4 as Altuve scores
Well, he got credit for a hbp although he didn’t think so and this ump has def helped the Astros in this inning.
