So, you don't think that McCarver knows much about catching, huh?
He played the position at the major league level in four decades, is a two time all star, and was the personal catcher for Steve Carlton when he played for the Phillies. In St. Louis, he was Bob Gibson's favorite catcher. If McCarver says something about catching, it's a safe bet that he's right. It's rules and umpiring that he has a problem with.
