The USS Baton Rouge was a 24th century Federation starship operated by Starfleet.
Lieutenant Darien Wallace, a life support systems specialist officer, was assigned to this ship on stardate 41987.6, before his service on the Seaquest. This ship was named on Wallace's personnel file. (TNG: "Eye of the Beholder", okudagram)
This starship was only mentioned in writing.. It was listed in an okudagram graphic Deanna Troi saw on a viewscreen. There is some question as to the existence of the Baton Rouge, as all of the personnel files Troi read were displayed while she was hallucinating and thus might not be real.
This starship was likely named after the Louisiana capital Baton Rouge. The Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology had information about a 23rd century predecessor, the USS Baton Rouge, which was the prototype for her starship class.
