Nicknamed "Rocky", Rhawn got into 90 MLB games during parts of those three seasons. He had an 11-year career overall (1938–1940; 1945–1952), most of it taking place at the highest levels of minor league baseball. He also served in the United States Army during World War II.

In Rhawn's first big-league contest, he relieved Giants' second baseman Bill Rigney in mid-game, collected two singles in two at bats, and scored two runs in a 9–3 Giants' victory over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Four days later, he went 3–for–4 against the Philadelphia Phillies, and hit the first of his two MLB home runs, a two-run shot off Schoolboy Rowe, pacing a 6–4 New York win.

He was traded along with Ray Poat from the Giants to the Pirates for Kirby Higbe on June 6, 1949.

Rhawn's 47 MLB hits also included nine doubles and two triples.
