James Timothy McCarver (born October 16, 1941) is an American sportscaster and former professional baseball catcher. McCarver played for the St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Phillies, Montreal Expos, and Boston Red Sox between 1959 and 1980. He appeared in the MLB All-Star Game in 1966 and 1967, and was the starting catcher for the World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals in 1964 and 1967.

Peary is famous for his book Cult Movies, and two sequels, Cult Movies 2 and Cult Movies 3 and are all credited for increasing public interest to the cult movies. Tim McCarver, baseball's preeminent analyst, has set down how the game should be played and watched. With his wit and storytelling verve, McCarver succinctly explains the fundamentals and proper mechanics of baseball at the level necessary for success in the major leagues.
