Baker back in Bay Area with Reds after stroke

Baker is back in the Bay Area for the playoffs, 10 years after he came so close to winning a World Series with San Francisco.
“Well, I really don’t have much choice,” Baker said when asked if it’s a strange coincidence. “I feel comfortable here. I think my team likes coming here. This is a good town.”
