Patrick Corbin pitched six innings to earn career win No. 100, Juan Yepez hit a three-run home run and the Washington Nationals beat the Colorado Rockies 8-3 on Thursday to take the rubber game of the series.
In his sixth try for the milestone win, Corbin allowed one run on four hits. He walked one batter and struck out a season-high eight in one of his best starts of the season.
Corbin went 14-7 with a 3.25 ERA for Washington in 2019 and was the winning pitcher in Game 7 of the World Series. Since then, the 35-year-old left-hander is 30-69 with a 5.64 ERA as he nears the end of a six-year, $140 million contract. “It wasn’t like they hit him hard at all," manager Bud Black said."Corbin outpitched him and then we couldn’t keep it close out of the bullpen.”
