J.T. Snow probably can’t pick up Baker anymore
It’s been 22 years since Darren Baker was part of a memorable moment during the 2002 World Series. More than two decades after he became an inadvertent postseason highlight as a 3-year-old, Dusty Baker’s son will be called up to the majors by the Washington Nationals when MLB rosters are allowed to expand Sunday.
Baker, now 25, is a second baseman and outfielder who batted. 285 with a .688 OPS, 20 doubles, two triples, 49 RBI and 38 stolen bases with Triple-A Rochester this season. He was drafted twice by the Nationals, first in 2017 out of high school as a 27th-rounder, then in the 10th round out of UC Berkeley.
