His career began with Cincinnati in 1893, paused for three seasons, then resumed with Pittsburgh in 1898. McCarthy moved through Chicago and three successive Cleveland club identities before returning to Chicago during 1903. Brooklyn employed him for his final two seasons, ending in 1907. He died in 1948, at seventy-nine.
