Carlos Correa read Devin Williams' mind on clutch Astros hit in 10th
Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free Carlos Correa knew what Devin Williams was going to throw on his go-ahead single three pitches before the beleaguered reliever threw it. Williams opened the top of the 10th with a fastball that missed outside by several feet, going to the backstop and sending automatic runner Jose Altuve to third. That was all Correa needed to see. 'After he yanked the fastball, I knew he was gonna go back to [the changeup],'' Correa said after Houston scored three runs off Williams in a 5-3, 10-inning win in The Bronx. 4 Carlos Correa rips RBI single during the 10th inning of the Yankees' 5-3 loss to Astros on Aug. 8, 2025. IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect The new Astros third baseman was right. Each of Williams' next three pitches in the at-bat were changeups. The first went for a called strike. Then Correa missed one to get the count to 1-2. 4 Devin Williams reacts dejectedly as he walks off the field after giving up the lead in the 10th inning of the Yankees' loss. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post The final pitch of the at-bat was another change — and not a bad one — that Correa smacked into center field for a single that drove in Altuve to give Houston the lead for good. And the inning only devolved from there for Williams and the Yankees, as Taylor Trammell hit a two-run homer off another Williams changeup. For Correa, the reasoning was easy — even if it was just the third time in his career he'd faced the right-hander, having homered off him previously. He was well aware that Williams has been a mess lately, and his recent history impacted Correa's approach. 'You know that and if he's gonna get beat, he's gonna get beat with his best pitch, and that's the changeup,' Correa said. 'You know he's not gonna get beat on a pitch he doesn't want to use.' 4 Jose Altuve scores after Devin Williams gave up an RBI single by Carlos Correa during the 10th inning of the Yankees' loss. Robert Sabo for NY Post CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS So Correa was able to take the changeup low in the zone and serve it into center. 'He threw me a really good one 1-1,'' Correa said. 'Then, I had to adjust and extend through the zone to get it elevated, and that's what I did.' Williams didn't regret the pitch to Correa. 'I thought Correa made a good piece of hitting on his hit,'' Williams said. 'I was OK with that pitch.' But then he hung a change to Trammell, who homered. That pitch did not please Williams. 'The one to Trammell was terrible,'' Williams said. 4 Carlos Correa celebrates after hitting an RBI single in the 10th inning of the Yankees' loss to the Astros.
