Corbin in SD:
Patrick Corbin got an extended break, with ten days off between his last two outings before today, over which he worked hard to tweak his mechanics, and try to find something which could turn things around three years into his struggles on the hill.
A solid six-inning outing, in which he gave up six hits, two walks, and four earned runs, was something of a step in the right direction for the 33-year-old veteran.
“I thought Corbin threw the ball a lot better,” manager Davey Martinez said after the southpaw returned to the Nats’ rotation to face the Chicago Cubs.
