MILWAUKEE -- Matt Garza hopes to get back on track Tuesday when he takes the mound against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the second of a four-game series at Miller Park.Garza has struggled since joining the team following a lengthy run on the disabled list and is 1-4 with a 9.08 ERA in his last five starts.He pitched better his last time out, allowing five runs (four earned) on eight hits and a pair of walks while striking out three over five innings of work against the Pirates but was done in by one pitch -- a first-inning, three-run home run by Matt Joyce.They say this game is a game of inches, Garza said. It broke right two inches (and was a) homer. If it breaks left two inches, he jams himself and pops it up.Milwaukee will be hoping to get some length out of Garza, who hasnt worked longer than 5 1/3 innings in his last four starts and hasnt gone deeper than six innings yet this season.I feel horrible because Im not a five (innings) and done guy, Garza said. I can go deep. I like to keep pitching.Garza has been one of the only Brewers pitchers to have any kind of success against Arizona first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, whose three-hit effort Monday improved his career average to .434 against the Brewers and .518 at Miller Park.But hes just 2-for-15 in his career against Garza, with three strikeouts and five walks.The Diamondbacks will need a big night from Goldschmidt and the rest of the offense as Patrick Corbin tries to snap a three-game losing streak. Since earning his last victory June 21, Corbin has gone 0-3 with a 7.50 ERA in his last five starts. He allowed nine hits and two walks his last time out, but of the six runs he gave up in Arizonas 10-4 loss, only three were earned though two came on a first inning Josh Donaldson home run.Left the ball out over the plate to Donaldson and he hit it out, manager Chip Hale said. Second, third, fourth innings, really got ahead in the count, threw a lot of first-pitch strikes and controlled the zone. I thought he really pitched well.Corbin missed all of the 2014 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery but posted a 3.16 ERA in 16 starts after he returned late last season. But hes yet to find his comfort zone in 2016, going 4-9 with a 5.23 ERA in 20 starts.Ive looked at video a bunch and havent seen anything mechanically, Corbin said. Just the results arent there. Im trying to get better and working on things in between starts. Hopefully can figure something out.Only four players on the Brewers current roster have faced Corbin. Catcher Jonathan Lucroy is 5-for-8 with a double and a walk in his career while Ryan Braun has one hit -- a home run -- and Hernan Perez is 1-for-3 with a double.Outfielder Kirk Nieuwenhuis has drawn a pair of walks in his only two plate appearances against Corbin.

If there was a single swing that made him The King, the driver Arnold Palmer hit on the first hole at Cherry Hills was it.Trailing by seven heading into the final round of the 1960 U.S. Open -- and angered by a sports writer who, during a lunch break, told him he had no chance at a comeback -- Palmer pulled the persimmon wood out on the tee box of the downhill, 346-yard hole. Palmer lashed at the balata-covered ball, which flew through the thin air, into the rough for one small hop, then tumbled onto the green.He made birdie and his greatest comeback was underway. He shot 65 to leapfrog a young amateur named Jack Nicklaus and a legend named Ben Hogan, while leaving the third-round leader, Mike Souchak, three shots behind.Today, theres a plaque commemorating Palmer on the first tee box at Cherry Hills. Two years ago, when the PGA Tour stopped at the iconic course near Denver for a tournament, pros were given a chance to duplicate Palmers shot using persimmon and balata, the way he did back in the day.Nobody could do it.As if there were any doubt: There is no other King.Palmer died Sunday afternoon of complications from heart problems. He was 87. He was admitted to UPMC Hospital in Pittsburgh on Thursday for some cardiovascular work, then weakened.His death brings back waves of memories of his finest performances, none more so that the comeback at Cherry Hills that came during an era when the final 36 holes were played on Saturday and the break between the third and fourth rounds was long enough to grab lunch.Palmer asked sports writers Bob Drum and Dan Jenkins how far they thought a 65 might go in the final round. It would leave him at 280.Doesnt 280 always win the Open? Palmer asked.Yeah, when Hogan shoots it, Jenkins replied.Drums response: Wont do you a damn bit of good.Palmer was so mad, he said, he couldnt finish his hamburger.The exchange with Drum set the fire off inside, not that it wasnt there, Palmer said. All I know is, I was pretty upset.He hit a few practice shots, went to the first tee, and a few hours later, he had his third major championship and first at the U.S. Open.Other victories Palmer will be long remembered for:1954 U.S. Amateur:A 24-year-old Palmer beat Bob Sweeney to win the National Amateur golf championship in Detroit, Michigan on August 28, 1954. The match pitted a graying millionaire playboy against the upstart Palmer in what many dubbed a battle of the classes.1955 Canadian Open:Palmer captured the Canadian Open championship, his first PGA Tour victory, at the Weston Golf Club. Palmer set a record that held for many years as the lowest score- he finished -23 -- in Open history. To celebrate Westons 75th anniversary in 1990, a Skins game was held featuring Arnold Palmer, Mark Calcavecchia, Ray Floyd and Dave Barr.1958 Masters:Palmer arrived at the Masters with eight titles but very little professional major championship experience. He had yet to play in a British Open or PGA Championship, and had finished tied for seventh a yyear earlier at the Masters.dddddddddddd A third-round 68 vaulted him into a tie for the lead with Sam Snead.Palmer and Ken Venturi, who was three strokes back, were paired for the final round, and Venturi trailed by just one stroke by the 12th hole. Then Palmers tee shot to the par-3 hole landed behind the green and plugged. Palmer believed he was entitled to relief because the ball was embedded, and Venturi agreed.But the rules official on the scene did not. He ruled Palmer had to play without relief. There was an argument, Palmer eventually played the ball and gouged it out of the turf, hitting a poor chip past the hole, then two-putting for a double-bogey 5.Venturi had made par and assumed the lead. But Palmer announced he was playing a second ball and made par.Venturi has always believed Palmer played the second ball incorrectly.There was never a question in my mind that I wasnt right about the 12th hole, said Palmer, who went on to win by a shot over Fred Hawkins and Doug Ford and by two over Venturi.1960 Masters:Palmer birdied the final two holes to win by one stroke over runner-up Ken Venturi. It was the second of Palmers four Masters victories and the second of his seven major titles.Palmer, age 30 at the time, also won the U.S. Open in 1960 and was the runner-up at the British Open.Palmer was the sole leader after all four rounds and was the second wire-to-wire winner at the Masters, following Craig Wood in 1941. Subsequent wire-to-wire winners were Nicklaus in 1972, Raymond Floyd in 1976, and Jordan Spieth in 2015.1961 British Open:Palmer won the first of two consecutive British Open Championships by finishing one stroke ahead of Dai Rees. Hed been runner-up the year before in his first Open, but the 1961 victory was the fourth of his seven major titles. He was the first American to win the Claret Jug since Ben Hogan in 1953.1962 Masters:Palmer won the first three-way Masters playoff -- beating defending champion Gary Player and Dow Finsterwald -- for the third of his four titles at Augusta National. Palmer shot a 31 on the back nine to finish at 68 on Monday, three strokes ahead of runner-up Player. It was Nicklaus first appearance at the Masters as a professional.1962 British Open:Palmers second major championship of the year -- and No. 6 of his career -- was a runaway at the British Open at Troon Golf Club in Scotland. He finished at 12 under par, six shots ahead of runner-up Kel Nagle -- and at least 13 strokes better than anyone else in the field.1964 Masters:Terrific from start to finish, Palmer easily wrapped up his fourth Masters title for his seventh -- and final -- major championship. No one had won four times at Augusta National until Palmer reached that number thanks to three rounds in the 60s, followed by a closing 70 that was plenty good enough: He beat runners-up Nicklaus and Dave Marr by six strokes.
