Frank Baker (b. March 13, 1886 - d. June 28, 1963) Despite never hitting more than 12 home runs in a season, during baseball's deadball era Baker was a slugger supreme. He led the Al in home runs from 1911 to 1914. His two World Series home runs earned him his "Home Run" nickname. In six World Series with the A's and Yankees, he hit .363. Frank Baker had 1,013 RBI in his career.

Card Details Below:
Year(s):	1911
ACC Set Designation:	D359
Set Name:	Rochester Baking
Country:	United States
Description:	The 1911 Rochester Baking set, an 18-card Philadelphia Athletics set, is among the scarcest of early 20th Century bakery issues. The set commemorates the Athletics' 1910 Championship season, and, except for pitcher Jack Coombs, the checklist includes nearly all key members of the club, including manager Connie Mack. The cards are the standard size for the era, 1-1/2" X 2-5/8". The front of each card features a player portrait set against a colored background. The player's name and the word "Athletics" appear at the bottom, while "World's Champions 1910" is printed along the top. The backs of the cards adverise the set as the "Athletics Series". Collectors should be aware that the same checklist was used for a similar Athletics set issued by the Williams Baking and Cullivan's Firesdie Tobacco (T208), and also that blank-backed versions are known to exist, but these are classified ast E104 cards in the American Card Catalog.
