Rookie phenom Carlos Correa has been unstoppable at the plate since being called up by the Houston Astros in early June, and he's been just as impressive in the field, too.
With the Astros trailing the Boston Red Sox 2-1 in the third inning Thursday, the 20-year-old made a stellar diving grab and subsequent throw to first to retire Xander Bogaerts.
Since making his debut in the majors, Correa leads the Astros in home runs, doubles, RBIs, and hits. He entered Thursday's game on a career-high seven-game hitting streak.
