Thanks for the post and thanks for the link to the news story. I found it interesting the team helped Frank Baker in the search. The 1924 Easton Farmers of the Class D Eastern Shore League had a 17 year old rookie by the name of Jimmie Foxx that year. Frank Baker sold Jimmie Foxx to Connie Mack and the Philadelphia A's before the end of the 1924 season so it would take a little research to see if Jimmie Foxx was still with team during the Aug. 27th search.
I mentioned this in the past, In 1956 and 1957 Home Run Baker rode in our Little League opening day parade and stay for two games and talk with the kids. We didn't realize at the time how important that memory would become.
