The most likely number of baseball cards in the deck would be 20. This is because there are currently 9 baseball cards recorded out of the total 20 cards that have been recorded. So, it is most likely that the remaining unrecorded cards will follow a similar ratio, leading to a total of 20 baseball cards in the deck.
