Once at a place of ‘no hope,’ Sharks broadcaster Jamie...
For this game, on Jan. 31, 2018, he’s clad in a sharp blue suit, orange shirt, patterned tie and austere pocket square. His analysis seems easy, effortless. His demeanor, upbeat.
At the start of the third period, he discusses the superlative play from Sharks goaltender Martin Jones, who held a buzzing Detroit squad scoreless through the first 40 minutes. There is nothing to suggest to viewers — or to those around him — that anything is amiss.
But during the second intermission, Baker made a decision with both urgency and permanence. He pulled out his phone, booked a flight home to California and resumed his day’s work as if nothing was wrong.
In those 20 minutes between periods, Jamie Baker decided to end his life.
