Baseball Card is a Rare Multiplicative Mult Joker that provides X1.5 Mult for each Uncommon Joker held by the player. The effect is multiplicative. The more Uncommon Jokers that the player holds, the more times Baseball Card will be triggered.

Importantly, Baseball Card does not trigger from a "minimum" rarity requirement of Uncommon; it only triggers specifically from Uncommon Jokers. Rare or Legendary Jokers do not grant the multiplier.

Baseball Card's effect triggers after the Uncommon Joker's effect. Therefore, placing +Mult Jokers left of Uncommon Jokers is best to maximize score.

• Black Deck ( {{hl|orange|+1}} Joker slot <br> {{hl|blue|-1}} hand every round Discover at least {{hl|orange|100}} items from your [[collection]] Black Deck.png)'s +1 Joker slot is beneficial for Baseball Card, allowing the player to hold an extra Uncommon Joker for an additional X1.5 Mult.
• Five-Card Draw ( ) works very well with Baseball Card, as this deck not only starts with an Uncommon Joker, but it also gives +2 Joker slots, allowing the player to hold two extra Uncommon Jokers for two additional X1.5 Mult.
• Ghost Deck ( [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] cards may appear in the shop, start with a {{spectral|Hex}} card Win a run with the {{D|Yellow}} on [[Stakes|any difficulty]] Ghost Deck.png) has easier access to multiple useful Spectral Cards, including Ectoplasm (Add [[Card Modifiers#Editions|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] to a random {{hl|orange|Joker,}} {{hl|red|-1}} hand size Available from start. Spectral Ectoplasm.png), which can allow the player to take more Uncommon Jokers to scale Baseball Card.
• Anaglyph Deck ( After defeating each [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Boss Blind}}]], gain a [[File:Double tag.png|24px]] [[Tags|{{hl|orange|Double Tag}}]] Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Black}} difficulty or harder Anaglyph Deck.png)'s double tags can be used to generate a large amount of Uncommon Jokers in a shop, allowing the player more choices on Uncommon Jokers via the Uncommon Tag ( Uncommon tag.png), and the Negative Tag ( Discover the {{edition|Negative}} edition Negative tag.png) can potentially generate Uncommon Jokers without the need for empty Joker slots.
• Fragile ( ) starts with 2 Negative Oops! All 6s (Doubles all [[listed probabilities|{{hl|orange|listed}} {{hl|green|probabilities}}]] <br> {{hl|grey|(ex: {{hl|green|1 in 3}} -> {{hl|green|2 in 3}})}} In one hand, earn at least {{hl|orange|10,000}} chips Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Oops!_All_6s.png), earning the player X2.25 Mult if Baseball Card is acquired.
• Blast Off ( ) starts with Constellation (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.1}} every time a [[Planet_Cards|{{hl|cyan|Planet}}]] card is used <br> {{currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Constellation.png) and Rocket (Earn {{Money|1}} at end of round. Payout increases by {{Money|2}} when [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Boss Blind}}]] is defeated Uncommon Economy N/A (Passive) Rocket.png), earning the player X2.25 Mult if Baseball Card is acquired, although it also starts with one fewer Joker slot.
• 15 Minute City ( ), On a Knife's Edge ( ), Mad World ( ), Medusa ( ), Bram Poker ( ), and Monolith ( ) all start with 1 Uncommon Joker, earning the player X1.5 Mult if Baseball Card is acquired.

With Uncommon Jokers like Marble Joker (Adds one [[Stone Cards|{{hl|orange|Stone}}]] card to the deck when [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Marble Joker.png) and Stone Joker (Gives {{Chips|+25}} for each [[Stone Card|{{hl|orange|Stone Card}}]] in your {{hl|orange|full deck}} <br> {{Currently|{{Chips|+0}}}} Uncommon Chips Independent Stone Joker.png), High Card builds can work well, provided the base Mult has been scaled sufficiently.

Baseball Card is a bit of an odd Joker, since its effect is triggered by only Uncommon Jokers. This effect happens after each Uncommon Joker is activated. Any Uncommon Joker is inherently synergistic with Baseball Card (aside from Madness (When {{hl|orange|Small Blind}} or {{hl|orange|Big Blind}} is selected, gain {{xmult|0.5}} and {{hl|orange|destroy}} a random Joker <br> {{Currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Madness.png)), and having four Uncommon Jokers totals to X5.0625 Mult, a rather large amount, but this restricts you to only using Uncommon Jokers or having more Joker slots. This bonus grows exponentially with more Joker slots, making Baseball Card one of only two Jokers that scale with total Jokers, the other being Abstract Joker ({{Mult|+3}} for each [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]] card<br>{{Currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Common Additive Mult Independent Abstract Joker.png).

• Other XMult Uncommon Jokers work incredibly well with Baseball Card, like Blackboard ({{xmult|3}} if all cards held in hand are {{suit|Spades}} or {{suit|Clubs}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Blackboard.png), Hologram (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.25}} every time a {{hl|orange|playing card}} is added to your deck <br> {{Currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Hologram.gif), and Glass Joker (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.75}} for every [[Glass_Cards|{{hl|orange|Glass Card}}]] that is destroyed <br> {{currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Have at least {{hl|orange|5}} [[Glass_Cards|{{hl|orange|Glass Cards}}]] in your deck Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Glass Joker.png). Pairing these with Baseball Card exponentially increases their scoring power.
• Effect or economy Uncommon Jokers are more useful with Baseball, like To the Moon (Earn an extra {{Money|1}} of {{hl|orange|interest}} for every {{Money|5}} you have at end of round Uncommon Economy N/A (Passive) To the Moon.png) and Shortcut (Allows {{ph|Straights}} to be made with gaps of {{hl|orange|1 rank}} <br> {{hl|gray|(ex: {{hl|orange|10 8 6 5 3}})}} Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Shortcut.png), since they usually would have no direct scoring bonus.
• Luck-based builds can use Baseball Card to great effect, since key jokers like Oops! All 6s (Doubles all [[listed probabilities|{{hl|orange|listed}} {{hl|green|probabilities}}]] <br> {{hl|grey|(ex: {{hl|green|1 in 3}} -> {{hl|green|2 in 3}})}} In one hand, earn at least {{hl|orange|10,000}} chips Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Oops!_All_6s.png), Bloodstone ({{hl|green|1 in 2}} chance for played cards with {{suit|Heart}} suit to give {{xmult|1.5}} when scored Have at least {{hl|orange|30}} cards with {{hl|orange|Heart}} suit in your deck Uncommon Multiplicative Mult On Scored Bloodstone.png), Lucky Cat (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.25}} every time a [[Lucky Cards|{{hl|orange|Lucky}}]] card {{hl|green|successfully}} triggers <br> {{Currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Mixed Lucky Cat.png), and most retrigger Jokers are uncommon.
• Séance (If [[Poker Hands|{{hl|orange|poker hand}}]] is a {{ph|Straight Flush}}, create a random [[Spectral_Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] card <br> {{room}} Uncommon Effect Independent Séance.png) and Sixth Sense (If {{hl|orange|first hand}} of round is a single {{hl|orange|6}}, destroy it and create a [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] card <br> {{room}} Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Sixth_Sense.png) can generate Ectoplasm (Add [[Card Modifiers#Editions|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] to a random {{hl|orange|Joker,}} {{hl|red|-1}} hand size Available from start. Spectral Ectoplasm.png), which allows the player to hold more Uncommon Jokers, scaling Baseball Card more.
• Baseball Card is compatible with Blueprint (Copies ability of [[Jokers|{{Hl|orange|Joker}}]] to the right Win a run Rare Effect Blueprint.png) and Brainstorm (Copies the ability of leftmost [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]] Discard a {{ph|Royal Flush}}. Rare Effect Brainstorm.png). Using a copy Joker will reduce the total amount of Uncommon Jokers but can provide more total XMult.

• Ectoplasm (Add [[Card Modifiers#Editions|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] to a random {{hl|orange|Joker,}} {{hl|red|-1}} hand size Available from start. Spectral Ectoplasm.png) adds Negative ({{hl|edition|+1}} Joker or Consumable slot Joker (Negative).png) to a random Joker, which allows the player to hold more Uncommon Jokers.

• Antimatter ({{hl|edition|+1}} Joker Slot Redeem Blank 10 total times Upgraded Antimatter.png) gives +1 Joker slot, allowing the player to hold an extra Uncommon Joker for an additional X1.5 Mult.

• When playing against Crimson Heart ( Showdown Crimson Heart.png), Baseball Card will still trigger on debuffed Uncommon Jokers, as long as Baseball Card is not debuffed itself.

• On Orange Stake and higher, Uncommon Perishable () Jokers that have been debuffed will still be granted XMult by Baseball Card, making it potentially worthwhile to hold onto a Joker even after it perishes.

• Painted Deck ( {{hl|orange|+2}} hand size, <br> {{hl|red|-1}} Joker slot Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Green}} difficulty or harder Painted Deck.png) is difficult to use with Baseball Card due to its -1 Joker slot, which allows fewer Uncommon Jokers to be held at once.
• Similarly, Cruelty ( ) is even more difficult to use with Baseball Card due to the -2 Joker slots, which allows even fewer Uncommon Jokers to be held at once.

• Baseball cards are a type of collectable trading card, with uncommon baseball cards being worth more than common cards. This Joker plays on this theme, with uncommon Jokers granting a bonus.
• The signature at the bottom of the card reads "Jim Joker".
• The exact depiction of the Joker/Jimbo icon/logo on the top right corner of this Joker's art can also be found on Riff-Raff (When [[Blind|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, create {{hl|orange|2}} [[Common Jokers|{{hl|blue|Common}} {{hl|orange|Jokers}}]] <br> {{room}} Common Effect On Blind Select Riff-Raff.png), as well as there being a similar version in the center of Seltzer (Retrigger all cards played for the next {{hl|orange|10}} hands Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Seltzer.png).
