Dusty Baker, American baseball player and manager
Johnnie B. "Dusty" Baker Jr. (born June 15, 1949) is an American baseball manager and former outfielder who is the manager of Houston Astros in Major League Baseball (MLB). He previously played in MLB for 19 seasons, most notably with the Los Angeles Dodgers. During his Dodgers tenure, he was a two-time All-Star, won two Silver Slugger Awards and a Gold Glove Award, and became the first NLCS MVP, which he received during the 1977 National League Championship Series. He also made three World Series appearances, winning one in 1981.

After retiring as a player, Baker served as the manager of the San Francisco Giants from 1993 to 2002, the Chicago Cubs from 2003 to 2006, the Cincinnati Reds from 2008 to 2013, and Washington Nationals from 2016 to 2017. He has served as the manager of the Astros since 2020. Baker is the first MLB manager to reach the playoffs and win a division title with five different teams, having accomplished both feats with each team he managed. He led the Giants to the 2002 World Series and the Astros to the 2021 World Series, making him the ninth manager to win pennants in both the American and National Leagues. At age 72, he is the second-oldest manager to appear in a World Series.
