My quick thoughts:
Bats woke up in this game.
Corbin giving up the grand slam really hurt.
Bullpen wasn't nails in the last two games.
I am still happy that we got the split.

I'm happy with the split. Glad they had a little come back at the end but still stinks they lost. Corbin hasn't had a good outing the last few times out there. Hope that changes really soon!

Corbin aware of first inning troubles, tough throwing so many pitches early. May go out earlier to warm up , switch it up

 

[Ronin]

Santana's first career slam came in the fourth inning off D-backs left-hander Patrick Corbin, who surrendered seven earned runs on a season-high 10 hits and owns a 9.00 ERA over his past five starts. Arizona has dropped back-to-back games for the first time in two weeks.

Crazy.

Disappointing. Split the series. On to Pitt tomorrow.

The two runs Corbin allowed in the first brought his season total to 12 given up in the opening inning of his 11 starts. Corbin was asked whether he thinks he could make some adjustments to his routine to compensate.

“I don’t know,” he said. “I’ve been throwing a lot of pitches, which is tough that early in the game. We’ll see. Maybe I’ll go out there a little bit earlier and warm up and figure something out.”

Manager Torey Lovullo was asked if he was concerned about Corbin’s recent struggles.

“Not entirely,” he said. “He’s had some good moments inside of those outings. Maybe he spoiled us early on. We know the season has ups and downs and he’s grinding through it right now. But he’s done enough inside the innings he’s been very good in to show me he’s just fine.”

I thought the game was on at 1. I was as ready as Corbin.

That is right around the time Cornin served up the grand salami.

I wonder if anyone would give anything of substance up for Corbin. Of all the pitchers in the rotation, he's the one that needs to go.
