After surrendering seven runs to the Chicago White Sox last week, Washington Nationals starter Patrick Corbin is certainly not winning over many fans in the District of Colombia.
Corbin has strung together an odd compilation of starts recently. In his last five outings, he has allowed earned run marks of seven, three, six, zero, and four. That lone zero was a complete game shutout against Miami. It is also the start most responsible for keeping his season-long statistics steady.
If one glanced at Corbin’s stats, blind resume style, they would see a slightly above average pitcher.
