Here's how Corey did against the Houston Astros last night, June 16:
4 at bats
2 hits- in the seventh, he led off with a bunt single and advanced
to second on a wild throw by Ausmus.
1 run- Bako doubled to score Corey and tie the game, 1-1.
Corey made a spectacular running catch of Morgan Ensberg's fly ball
to end the eighth. Minute Maid Park is keeping him busy.
"It was hard because it was around left-center and there are a
couple things hanging over the wall like a balcony or something and
I told myself to stay with it," he said. "For a second, I lost it. I
had to focus and concentrate. Then I had to jump and I thought I'd
hit the wall. It's really tough out there and you have to do the
best you can."
Great job Corey!
