"Big" Mitch Baker is a biker in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City; he is a Vietnam veteran, and apparently earned a Purple Heart while killing a village full of Viet Cong. He believes that Vice City's police mistreat veterans (or at least, disaffected and violent ones such as himself), which has consequently led to innumerable clashes and 13 (presumably brief) stints in jail. He runs a local biker gang from the Greasy Chopper bar and is extremely loyal to his "family". Tommy Vercetti has to earn Baker's respect before he can get the gang to provide security for a Love Fist concert - this arrangement may be a parallel to the disastrous real-life Rolling Stones concert at Altamont Speedway in 1969. Mitch calls into V-Rock, Vice City's rock-and-roll radio station, complaining that they play too many hair bands and not enough hard rock. His name may be a Spoonerism of "bitch maker".
