Some Famous People called Doc Marshall

Doc Marshall (catcher)

William Riddle Marshall (September 22, 1875 in Butler, Pennsylvania – December 11, 1959 in Clinton, Illinois), was a professional baseball player who played catcher for several National League clubs from 1904 to 1909. He briefly managed the Chicago Whales during the inaugural Federal League season.

In 1907, while playing for the Cardinals he led all catchers in assists and errors.

During the 1908 season, the last-place Cardinals sold him to the league-leading Chicago Cubs. He was included on the Cubs' 22-man roster for the 1908 World Series but he did not play. The Cubs beat the Detroit Tigers 4 games to 1. The next season, the Cubs sold Marshall to the Brooklyn Superbas, where he served as the backup catcher to Bill Bergen. Bergen set a post-1900 record for futility at the plate by a regular position player which still stands, batting .139 in 112 games. Marshall hit somewhat better in his 50 games, batting .201. This proved to be Marshall's last major league season, although he played four more seasons in the minors.

He also played with the Des Moines Undertakers of the Western League and the Milwaukee Brewers and St. Paul Saints of the American Association.

During his baseball career, in both the minor and major leagues, Marshall studied medicine part-time, earning his doctorate in 1909. After retiring from baseball, he bought the practice of a local doctor in the small town of Clinton, Illinois, and served patients in east-central Illinois for 45 years from 1914 to 1959. His brother Dr. E.H. Marshall was his business and professional partner.

He attended college at Grove City College, Slippery Rock University, the University of Pennsylvania and the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery.
