COMMENTARY
The horror show at Fenway Park this season has been a pitching one first and foremost. That can be easy to lose with all the losing, but the evidence Sunday spread across the megalopolis.
On Sunday afternoon in Washington, Patrick Corbin won. This was notable, at least in the mind of a person still marveling at the whipsaw nature of the 2022 Red Sox.
For one, Corbin hasn’t done much winning since the 2019 World Series, even by Nationals standards. He lost 16 in 2021 and is 6-17 with a month left to this year, putting just the second 20-loss season since 1981 firmly on the table.
