After retiring from major league baseball, Irvin worked as a scout for the New York Mets from 1967-68 and later spent 17 years (1968-1984) as a public relations specialist for the commissioner's office. Today, he serves on the Veterans Committee of the Hall of Fame and actively campaigns for recognition of deserving Negro League veterans.

Irvin, who is now 88 years old, wrote an autobiography, Nice Guys Finish First, in 1996, and he currently lives in Sugarmill Woods, Florida. He continues to be active in seeking recognition for Negro League players. Baseball's recognition of Jackie Robinson elicited articles about Irvin, including one published by the San Francisco Chronicle:

Recently, Irvin was also featured in a documentary entitled "The Bases Are Loaded," in which he traveled to Cuba after 50 years to be reunited with former teammate and Cuban baseball icon Connie Marrero. Irvin played winter ball in Latin America.
