Carlos Correa correctly predicted Game 5 of the American League Championship Series would not be decided by extra innings.
The Houston Astros shortstop confidently told manager Dusty Baker that a walk-off hit was coming in the bottom of the ninth against the Tampa Bay Rays, per MLB.com's Brian McTaggart.
“Carlos told me before he went up there, he goes: ‘Walk-off,’” Baker said. “I said, ‘Go ahead on, man.’”
“I knew I was going to end it,” Correa said. “I could feel my swing was in sync. I could feel my rhythm was good, and I felt like I was going to drive the ball.
