The Diamondbacks are going to slightly rearrange their starting rotation, moving Corbin Burnes up to Sunday against the Nationals.
Burnes' trademark cutter has looked much more like the pitch he is known for, and the right-hander appears both confident and in control on the mound of late. The D-backs could use another lengthy start against a free-swinging Pirates team that has struggled offensively.
The Arizona Diamondbacks got a good pitching performance from Corbin Burnes and three relievers and crushed the struggling Colorado Rockies on May 16.
The Diamondbacks let a very good Corbin Burnes start go to waste with a loss to the Dodgers, dropping a series they had opportunities to win.
Teoscar Hernández hit a three-run homer off Corbin Burnes in the sixth inning, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-1.
The Diamondbacks won Game 1 in shutout fashion, 5-0, yesterday as the Pirates batters totaled six hits by four different players. Arizona had 10 hits and two homers behind 6.2 innings from Ryne Nelson. Both teams are 5-5 in their last 10 games.
