Spahm isnt the greatest lefty pitcher of all time
In my youth, I saw Spahn (363 career wins) in person numerous times at the Polo Grounds. He may not have been THE best lefty of all time but ... pretty damn good.

Even at age 42 (in 1963), he and Juan Marichal pitched into the 16th inning of a game Spahn lost on a walk-off solo HR by Willie Mays. He gave up 9 hits and 1 walk in the 15 1/3 innings he pitched. 

And we should feel fortunate if Corbin can somehow get through a lineup twice?
