Athletes - David McCarty


David Andrew McCarty (born November 23, 1969 in Houston, Texas) is a former first baseman and outfielder in Major League Baseball. McCarty attended Stanford University and currently lives in Piedmont, California with two children and his wife.

From 1993 through 2005, McCarty played with the Minnesota Twins (1993-95), San Francisco Giants (1995-96), Seattle Mariners (1998), Kansas City Royals (2000-02), Tampa Bay Devil Rays (2002), Oakland Athletics (2003) and Boston Red Sox (2003-05). He batted right handed and threw left handed.

In an eleven-season career, McCarty was a .242 hitter with 36 home runs and 175 RBI in 630 games.

A utility player in the purest sense, McCarty was an excellent defensive first baseman and a decent outfielder who occasionally was called upon to pitch
. His most productive season came in 2000 for the Royals, when he posted career-highs in batting average (.278), home runs (12), RBI (68), runs (34), hits (75), doubles (14) and games played (103).

McCarty, who was released by the Boston Red Sox in May 2005, refused a minor league assignment. He has effectively retired and is considering a career as a baseball commentator.

On July 1, 2005, McCarty was sitting alongside Tom Caron and Sam Horn
on the NESN, perhaps foreshadowing a career in broadcasting.

Trivia

  • McCarty had also three pitching stints while on the Red Sox in 2004. The first one during the April 11th home opener. The second in the June 12th game vs the Los Angeles Dodgers in which he struck out Jayson Werth
    . And finally, the final game of the season where McCarty went 2 scoreless innings against the Baltimore Orioles in which he struck out Rafael Palmeiro
