Correa has plenty of reason to feel that way early this season, after homering on Friday night for his fourth straight game with an extra-base hit to lead the Houston Astros to a 3-2 win over the Oakland Athletics. Houston Astros’ Carlos Correa celebrates his solo home run off Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Frankie Montas during the fourth inning of a baseball game, Friday, April 5, 2019, in Houston. Altuve added an insurance run for the Astros with a run-scoring double in the seventh. The Athletics loaded the bases with two outs in the third after a double by Laureano and two walks. Correa’s two-strike shot to left-center started Houston’s fourth to put the Astros back on top.
