A 1916 advertisement featuring Frank “Home Run” Baker.
Slugging Third Baseman of the New York Yankees says that of all the beverages, the one that makes a hit with him Coca-Cola
Baker was sold to the Yankees for $37,500 in February of 1916 after the star of the Philadelphia Athletics had sat out the 1915 season over a salary dispute with Connie Mack. The Hall of Famer remained a star while in New York, but never again put up the numbers he did before missing an entire season in the prime of his career.
