	The Ballplayers - Tim McCarver \| BaseballLibrary.com
		McCarver hit only 12 homers in the next two seasons and was traded, at the end of 1969, with would-be free agent Curt Flood to the Phillies for Dick Allen in a seven-player swap.
		In mid-1975, at the behest of Carlton, McCarver was reacquired by the Phillies.
		McCarver's quip that when he and Carlton die, they'll be buried 60 feet six inches apart is indicative of the folksy, talkative style that characterized him as a Mets broadcaster.

	Tim McCarver Show -- About Tim
		McCarver’s broadcast career started with the Philadelphia Phillies, almost immediately after his retirement as a player, but it wasn’t long before his talents were recognized by NBC and WOR, the superstation home of the New York Mets.

	Tim McCarver - Wiki Gonzalez (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Tim McCarver (born 1941) is America's greatest living baseball broadcasting embarrassment.

	I hate the Fox Television broadcasters, especially Tim McCarver (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Tim McCarver, the colorguy of Fox’s flagship team, has taken this whole “Tim McCarver is the foremost chronicler of the baseball experience” ethic more than a little too far.
		But Tim, people are going to ooh and aah over it nonetheless, because people are not you, Tim McCarver, and they do not have the ability to see through time and into the mists of human will and ascertain which brushback pitches are actually intentional, so please, Wizard McCarver, do not destroy us.
		Tim McCarver has not atoned for any of the sins attributed so skillfully to him by the foregoing pinch runner.

		For Joe Buck and Tim McCarver haters, this is bad news, but it does assure that some baseball will be on free television for a while, whatever "free" means anymore.
		FOX's Tim McCarver trounced Dan Marino, Jimmy Johnson, Terry Bradshaw and Billy Packer on his way to the finals, while White Sox shill Hawk "You can put it on the board, YEAH!" Harrelson, somewhat of a surprise finalist, breezed by Seth Davis, Steve Lyons, Magic Johnson and Tony Siragusa.
		We personally think McCarver's got this one in the bag; right now, fans of all four teams are frantically scouring the Web to see if McCarver and Joe Buck are doing their game, or the other series.

	SportsPickle.com - Scooter the Talking Baseball Tries to Explain How Tim McCarver Still Has a Job
		Scooter FOX’s animated, talking baseball who appears during every game the network broadcasts to explain in elementary, kid-friendly language how various pitches swoop, dip and curve – instead tried to explain during last night’s Astros-White Sox telecast how FOX color commentator Tim McCarver has yet to be fired.
		During the bottom of the seventh inning last night, after a series of particularly moronic statements from McCarver, FOX cut to a prepackaged Scooter segment called “How Tim McCarver Still Has a Job.”
		Tonight I’m here to explain to you how Tim McCarver still hasn’t been fired after all these years of horrendous and somehow increasingly terrible color commentary on this network.”

	WhatIfSports Discussion Forum: Tim McCarver . . . .
		McCarver is an excellent announcer and a great baseball man. People like mudbone and Khan should have been aborted, perhaps they were and some do-gooder saved their lives when they were dying on the floor of the room above the bar......but, I digress.
		Actually, I think he told McCarver "The only thing you know about my pitching is you can't hit it." That is what Gibson told McCarver when he came out to the mound to talk to Gibbie when they were teammates for the Cardinals.
		Tim continues to be a great color man and earns his huge salary.

		On the surface, baseball looks like such an easy game--you throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball, and you run around the bases--but there are so many beautiful and hidden facets to the diamond.
		McCarver is at his best when describing the little things that go into making strategic decisions, like when to steal, when to hit and run, when to try for an extra base and so on.
		McCarver takes a kind of 'scientific' approach in explaining the various parts of the game, from the preparation he goes through before a televised game, to the pre-game meetings, to the actual game itself, "working a lineup," what is involved in playing the various positions, pitcher-batter duels, and so on.

		Tim McCarver's sports broadcasting experience includes serving as the lead analyst for Major League Baseball on Fox Sports.
		At least McCarver wasn't like Buck, anti-White Sox, constantly saying that their 11-1 record in the postseason was only due to luck and bad calls.

		Those of you who don't live in the New York City area may be unaware that the odious McCarver was the announcer for the Mets for several years, thus giving Yankees fans additional reason to hate their crosstown rivals.
		Nevertheless, when his departure from the Mets was announced, it was met with great celebration by all baseball fans in the area.
		I guess it has been somewhat of a success since the odious McCarver was given the heave-ho from the Yankees broadcast team.
