Some things can be made up. Like: Hey did you hear Stubby Clapp is moonlighting as a tumbling instructor at The Little Gym in Germantown? See, totally made up.
But some things just can’t be made up. Like: Did you hear prominent baseball figure Tim McCarver recorded an album at Memphis’ Archer Records? And it’s coming out tomorrow? Totally true.
Correction: The album was recorded at Ardent Studios, and Archer Records is assisting with distribution.
A Memphis native (and Christian Brothers HS alum), McCarver is known for his career behind the plate for the St. Louis Cardinals (with whom he won two World Series) and Philadelphia Phillies, among other teams; and for his post-playing career as a television sports broadcaster.
And now he’s a recording artist.
