Like Laughing Last

Carlos Correa of the Astros hit a go-ahead homerun last night in the seventh inning against the Red Sox. Instead of a Tim Anderson bat flip Correa went with a bit of pantomime, checking a make-believe watch on his right hand and mouthing the words, It’s my time, as he made ready to circle the bases. Speaking of things Houston, Earl Campbell, great running back of the since-departed Oilers, is credited with saying, “When you get to the end zone, act like you’ve been there before.” Words to live by, except in baseball these days.
