Corbin finally gets his 10th victory

Diamondbacks left-hander Patrick Corbin finally got his 10th win of the season last night as he goes eight innings in Arizona's 6-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies.

The young man should be 15-0 at this point, but his 10-1 record (with one more start looming before the all-star break) was enough to warrant selection for next week's 2013 All-Star Game.

Corbin has a great future ahead of him. Let's hope the D'backs can hang on to him for a few years. So many have gotten away in the past. Case in point: Max Scherzer. Max is 13-0 with the Detroit Tigers this season.

At any rate, Corbin and the Diamondbacks looked like a first-place team in the NL West as they sweep the Rockies and now await the second-place LA Dodgers in a three-game series, beginning tonight at Chase Field.

Come on D'backs, let's really make a statement and extend the NL West lead!
