Astros' Carlos Correa, struggling recently, comes up big with walk-off HR vs. Yankees

HOUSTON -- The 2019 season has been a trying one for the Astros' Carlos Correa. Injuries have limited his availability and production, and even when he returned to the active list for the postseason, he struggled to find the timing at the plate that made him one of the game's brightest young stars. That timing returned on Sunday, and it was just in time for Houston.

Correa homered to opposite field off Yankees lefty J.A. Happ on the first pitch of the bottom of the 11th, giving the Astros a desperately-needed 3-2 win over New York on Sunday.
