The question... Tim McCarver, the $75,000 signee for Cards scout Buddy Lewis, makes his professional debut as a player in 1959, who was the home plate umpire for Tim McCarver's first baseball game as a professional?

According to Baseball-Reference, the home plate umpire was Al Barlick.

Because every thread needs a card. R.I.P. Grew up watching him play. Great Cardinal.
