Three things to know about this game
• Of the 23 balls the Astros put in play against Corbin in his last start, 20 qualified as soft contact -- below Statcast's hard-hit threshold of 95 mph. That 87-percent rate is the third highest this year for a D-backs starter who generated at least 15 batted balls.
• One of Milone's three starts with the Mets earlier this season was in Arizona on May 16. He gave up five earned runs on six hits and three walks over 5 2/3 innings, striking out four. Milone is 0-2 with a 7.59 ERA in two career starts against the D-backs.
• Corbin also pitched in that series, allowing four earned runs over six innings on May 17. He did not factor into the decision. Lifetime against the Mets, he is 0-3 with a 6.04 ERA in six appearances, five of which were starts.
