On August 28, 2006, Marsh was involved in a controversial call during a Philadelphia Phillies-New York Mets game. In the third inning, David Wright hit a grounder that appeared to strike third base but was called foul by Marsh. After a conference between the umpires, the call was reversed and Wright was awarded first base. The runners previously on first base and third base were also awarded one base. Phillies manager Charlie Manuel proceeded to argue the reversal and was subsequently ejected by Marsh. The reversal presumably violated a fundamental tenet of baseball rules - that a batted ball, once ruled foul, must stay foul - and that it is beyond the umpires' judgment to determine what would have happened on the play should the batted ball been ruled fair.
