Del Baker Autographs
Del Baker was an American baseball player and manager born in Sherwood, Oregon on June 15, 1892. He started his career in the major leagues as a catcher for the Philadelphia Athletics in 1914 before moving on to the Cleveland Indians, Washington Senators, and New York Yankees. However, it was his accomplishments as a manager that solidified his legacy in the sport.
Baker began his managerial career in 1929 with the Atlanta Crackers of the Southern Association. He then moved on to manage the Syracuse Chiefs in the International League before eventually joining the Detroit Tigers in 1934. He led the Tigers to the American League pennant in 1940 and again in 1945, winning his first and only World Series in 1945. He is remembered for his ability to lead a team, his sharp wit, and a memorable trick play in the 1940 World Series that helped the Tigers win Game Seven.
After retiring as a manager, Baker was inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1979 and passed away on September 11, 1973 at the age of 81. His impact on the sport of baseball was felt well beyond his lifetime and his knowledge and passion for the game earned him a place in the hearts of many fans. His legacy endures today as an inspiration to aspiring baseball coaches and players alike.
