Edward Stanley Baker (9 November 1910–15 March 1992) was an English cricketer: a wicket-keeper who played 32 first-class matches for Worcestershire in the 1930s.

Baker attended, and played for, King Edward's School in Birmingham. [cite web |url=http://cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/131/131065.html |title=King Edward's School Birmingham v Bromsgrove School in 1927 |accessdate=2008-08-04 |publisher=CricketArchive] He made his first-class debut for Worcestershire against Gloucestershire at Cheltenham in 1933, taking two catches and scoring 0 and 5. [cite web |url=http://cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/14/14790.html |title=Gloucestershire v Worcestershire in 1933 |accessdate=2008-08-04 |publisher=CricketArchive] He appeared thrice more that summer, but took only one more catch and scored just 1 and 1 in his two remaining innings.

In 1934 Baker was Worcestershire's regular wicket-keeper, a deliberate decision made by the county to allow Bernard Quaife to play as a specialist batsman. [Obituary. "Wisden Cricketers' Almanack" 1993.] Baker played 28 times that summer, and ended the year with 38 dismissals (33 caught; five stumped), although in any single match he never claimed more than the four dismissals (all caught) he managed against Somerset in June. [cite web |url=http://cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/15/15053.html |title=Worcestershire v Somerset in 1934 |accessdate=2008-08-04 |publisher=CricketArchive]

Baker played no first-class cricket after the 1934 season.
