Charles Anthony Marshall (August 28, 1919 – April 15, 2007) was a catcher in Major League Baseball who played for the St. Louis Cardinals during the 1941 season. A native of Wilmington, Delaware, he batted and threw right-handed. He was nicknamed Chick.
Marshall was a major league player whose career, statistically speaking, was only slightly different than that of Eddie Gaedel or Moonlight Graham. On June 14, 1941, he caught for the Cardinals and collected a putout in his only fielding chance. He did not have a batting appearance and never played a major league game again.
Marshall died in his homeland of Wilmington, Delaware, at age 87.

“We [actors] are indeed a strange lot! There are times we doubt that we have any emotions we can honestly call our own. I have approached every dynamic scene change in my life the same way. When I married Charlie MacArthur, I sat down and wondered how I could play the best wife that ever was.... My love for him was the truest thing in my life; but it was still important that I love him with proper effect, that I act loving him with great style, that I achieve the ultimate in wifedom.”
