Corbett played with the Phillies in part of three seasons. In a 37-game career, he was a .120 hitter (13-for-108) with two home runs and 10 RBI, including 12 runs and three doubles. Following his majors career, he was traded for first baseman/outfielder Phil Weintraub and played for the Baltimore Orioles of the International League.
