Correa went 1-for-3 with a two-run double in the seventh inning of Monday's 6-2 win over Texas.

EDGE Analysis

Correa's double, his sixth extra-base hit in the last eight games, was just the fourth time in 30 at-bats he's delivered a base knock with runners in scoring position. It was also his first hit with a man on third base with less than two outs. He'd been 0-for-9 in such situations entering Monday's game, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports. Correa said he's been chasing pitches outside the zone, trying to make a play instead of taking a walk. The numbers at Baseball Info Solutions backs that up. Entering Monday, the shortstop had swung at 32 percent of the pitches he saw outside the zone, up from 29 percent in 2016. "I feel like it's more about being patient at the plate," he said. "Try to take the pitches I don't want to hit and be able to put in play the pitches I want to hit and be able to put it in play hard."
