SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) Patrick Corbin, who was limited to 16 starts last year after returning from Tommy John surgery, threw three scoreless innings and the Arizona Diamondbacks hit three home runs in the first three innings to defeat the Kansas City Royals 12-3 on Friday.

Corbin faced 10 batters and allowed two singles.

Chris Herrmann, Nick Ahmed and Evan Marzilli, the Diamondbacks 7-8-9 hitters, combined to go 6 for 10 with three home runs and six RBIs.

Herrmann hit a three-run shot off Joakim Soria in the third after an Omar Infante fielding error. Ahmed and Marzilli hit back-to-back homers in the second off Chris Young, who allowed four runs on six hits.

Reymond Fuentes homered in the Royals three-run eighth.
