Am I wrong in thinking a lot of Corbin's major problems have been in the first inning? Probably every inning this season but it just seems he's always rocky early. Not a good sign for being an effective reliever.
Yes and no. Earlier in the season it was. Then it moved to beyond 70+ pitches. Yesterday was the first start since Aug 3 where he had given up a run in the first inning, the first time he'd given up more than one run since July 16th.

As a reference, Ian Kennedy's last two seasons as a starter had 4.50 and 5.10 ERAs in the first inning
