Carlos Correa, the franchise cornerstone at shortstop who had anchored the Astros' infield through their championship era and who remained one of the best players at his position in all of baseball, departed as a free agent in the offseason. Peña, a 24-year-old rookie with fewer than 50 major league plate appearances to his name, stepped into the vacancy. What followed was one of the most remarkable debut seasons in modern baseball history: Peña played 136 regular season games, hit .253 with 22 home runs and 63 RBI, and then performed at a level in the postseason that no rookie shortstop had ever matched at the highest stakes. ⚾\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚾ In the 2022 American League Championship Series against the New York Yankees, Peña was named ALCS MVP. In the 2022 World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies, he was named World Series MVP – the first rookie shortstop to win the award in the championship's history. He walked off Houston in Game 1 of the ALCS with a home run in the 18th inning. He hit .400 in the World Series. The Astros, who had feared losing Correa would compromise their title window, instead watched their rookie replacement win the title on his own merits. ⚾\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚾ The 2020 Topps Bowman Heritage product captures Peña at card #JP in the Chrome Prospects subset – the Heritage design applied to chromium construction, documenting Peña's prospect status in the Astros system two years before he took the Houston infield by force and won the whole thing.
