Patrick Corbin tossed eight scoreless last time out before tonight, earning the win in an 11-1 game with the Pittsburgh Pirates and extending a 12-start unbeaten streak, over which he’d posted a 2.12 ERA, 22 walks, 90 Ks, and a .217/.273/.337 line against in 76 1⁄3 innings pitched.
“He’s keeping the ball down,” Davey Martinez said when he was asked what’s working for the left-hander in PNC Park.
“He’s working both sides of the plate. When he throws ground balls, that typically tells me that he’s on, and that means his fastball is good.
