🔒Insiders, these are 6 ways Houston felt BIG LOVE♥ for Carlos Correa over his years in H-Town

HOUSTON – Carlos Correa left Houston for the Twins and has now announced a megadeal to join the San Francisco Giants, but the love is still there for Houston. Here are five times when Houston fell in love with the baseball player during his tenure with the Astros.

His friendship with Astros slugger and fielding great Jose Altuve

If we’re talking about on the field, there are many times Correa dug in and helped Houston win. However, some of the most endearing moments are when he and Altuve teamed up to get the out. And we, as onlookers, enjoyed their celebrations on and off the field. It was a bromance made in Houston and we’re really, really going to miss their pairing. If they cross paths on the road, you can bet we’ll be watching for those handshakes and hugs between Altuve and Correa. Don’t mind us over here. We just have a little something in our eye. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

His engagement to Daniella Rodriguez after the World Series win in 2017

Who doesn’t love an engagement? Ok. Some folks don’t, but when you pair it with a World Series win and a massive ring (in addition to a World Series ring), it’s hard to not love it. Correa dropped to his knees and proposed on the field to Daniella Rodriguez. The surprise moment was something to behold live. We were just as surprised as Rodriguez to see the celebrations turn into an even bigger, life-changing affair for the couple. Ok, maybe we weren’t as surprised as Rodriguez, but we were for sure shocked to see that ring! Revisit the ring and the moment in the photos below.

The way he loves his fans

When little Scarlett cried over Correa’s engagement to Daniella Rodriguez, we watched and knew we had to do something. KPRC 2 reached out to Correa and little Scarlett’s family and made a meeting happen at KPRC 2. The surprise was amazing to orchestrate. However, KPRC 2 learned something about Correa and Rodriguez that day. They are all about the fans. Not only did they meet with Scarlett, they also stayed and talked and signed autographs and took photos with many staff at the station who wanted to meet them.

A young baseball player also got to meet Correa after connecting with KPRC 2. You can read that story here.

Wedding

After the romantic engagement, the world fell in love with Correa again after seeing the couple’s wedding through photos on Instagram. What a glorious day for a beautiful couple. Revisit the celebrations.

If you haven’t gotten enough, here are some of the other Instagram posts shared by the couple that made us swoon.

The way Correa stepped in to help after devastating earthquakes in Puerto Rico

Correa joined the relief effort to help those in need in Puerto Rico after a series of earthquakes caused destruction along the island’s southern coast in 2020. Correa raised the money for earthquake relief through his nonprofit, the Correa Family Foundation. Correa’s foundation also helped people amid the coronavirus pandemic and following Hurricane Florence in 2018. Read more here.
