He compiled a won–lost record of 18–10 and an earned run average of 3.98 in 2891⁄3 innings pitched, allowing 289 hits and 156 bases on balls, with 142 strikeouts and five saves. Corwin made one appearance in the 1951 World Series. In Game 5, in a mop-up relief role, he hurled 12⁄3 scoreless innings in a 13–1 victory by the eventual champion New York Yankees.
