Fresh off his being named the Sporting News' AL Rookie of the Year, Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa was at Game 1 of the World Series. The 21-year-old is serving as a correspondent for MLB.com at the Series between the Kansas City Royals and New York Mets, which kicked off Tuesday night.

Showing off some stylish October fashion, Correa was on-hand at Kauffman Stadium for a busy day: he took in the sights and sounds in addition to appearing on 'MLB Tonight' for an interview about his phenomenal first year in the big leagues and to share some thoughts on the Fall Classic. Before it all began, Correa stopped by the 'Intentional Talk' set to discuss his 'internship', as he put it:

It's only been one game, but Correa definitely seems to be enjoying his new role at the World Series.
