1. Talk about a standout performance! Corbin Burnes, the All-Star pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles, made Opening Day history with an impressive 11 strikeouts—the most by an Orioles pitcher since 1998!
  2. In 2021, Corbin set a new MLB record by starting a season with 58 strikeouts before issuing his first walk, showcasing his incredible control and precision.
  3. Corbin’s love for baseball runs deep in the family. His father Rick Burnes ignited his passion for the sport, coaching him and his brother from a young age.
  4. Despite his talents on the diamond, Corbin had dreams of going pro in hockey, football, and basketball too! Ultimately, baseball won out, and the rest is history.
  5. Off the mound, Corbin enjoys outdoor activities with his childhood sweetheart-turned-wife and their newborn baby and appreciates the opportunity to disconnect and recharge in nature.

I created Fangirl Sports Network as a place for female sports fans to follow their favorite teams with content and coverage that speaks directly to females. It started with one and then eight and now 32 NFL Fangirls and 15 NBA Fangirls.
