Brass Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Was bored and thought I would post some valuable Tim McCarver comments!During the ALCS, after a ball was hit off the Green Monster (by Millar I believe), McCarver said "if that ball had more elevation, it would have been a home run""One thing about ground balls. They don't go out of the ball park."Game 6, 2004 ALCS. During a pretty good at bat by Orlando Cabrera: "Yankee pitchers have had great success this year against Cabrera when they get him out.""National league pitchers pitch Edmonds up and in. That is his strength and his weakness.""I think Tim Wakefield would even say tonight that Tim Wakefield got to Tim Wakefield tonight.""It's better to have a fast runner on base than a slow one.""Bronson Arroyo and Pedro Martinez will start Game 2."Joe buck, something to the effect of: and after game 7 last year, we know Pedro won?t be pitching much past 100 pitches.? McCarver: ?well, when Pedro becomes tired, the Red Sox coaches have 2 options, leave Pedro in, or take him out and go to the bullpen.?1993 World Series, Phillies vs. Blue Jays: "Watch Darren Daulton use his mitt like a glove."Post yours!

Cujo Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I know know of any exact quotes from the guy, gut he is the master of the obvious. One he uses about every other game is that makes me wanna slap the man is:"The [insert team name here] are looking to score first in tonight's game."

Yac12 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I don't have the exact quote, but it was along the lines of:When a runner steals second and then steals third he steals two bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmorss9 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I don't remember the situation, but the Yankees were at bat in the 2004 ALCS when McCarver declared that at that point in the game "A walk is as good as a home run".

Sodboy13 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 The continued employment of Tim McCarver hurts my soul.

DGivens87 Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Oh I had a field day during the Sox-Yankees 04 ACLS...For God sakes you overrated, past-your-prime, nonesense-spewing demon, it's BRONSON Arroyo, not BRANDON. I know three year olds who could call a better game than you. A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN!

McCarver's just terrible....at least most of ya only deal with him on national broadcasts...I remember when he was doing Mets games...UGH! There were MANY times I was rooting for Kiner or Steve Zabriskie to beat him to death with a microphone.Still, what do ya expect from a guy who's "career" was made by being Steve Carlton's caddy for so many years?

Mac6674 Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 "You know, it should really be called the run and hit, not the hit and run, since the runner takes off before the batter swings." Or something like that 800 times a year. Even my mom hates Tim McCarver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcgd Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 "National league pitchers pitch Edmonds up and in. That is his strength and his weakness." That one actually makes sense. Its a stength cause he can hit that pitch well. but its a weakness cause he'll chase after it alot and miss.Well, it makes more sense than the rest of them.
