Since Baptists are not "top down" organizations requiring adherence to a published doctrine,
they do not fit with "denomination" classification.
Some baptist churches lean Calvinistic, thus are aligned with Presbyterian and Reformed theology.
Others lean Arminian, thus are aligned with Methodist Churches.
Others hold to scripture, which puts them at odds with most main line denominations.

From Wikipedia:
Mainline churches include the so-called "Seven Sisters of American Protestantism"—the United Methodist Church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the Presbyterian Church (USA), the Episcopal Church, the American Baptist Churches, the United Church of Christ, and the Disciples of Christ—as well as the Quakers, Reformed Church in America, African Methodist Episcopal church and other churches.
Mainline Protestant (MP) and Baptist traditions are very different.
Your question is like asking what kind of dog is most like a cat.
The first practices infant sprinkling, the second adult submersion.
On many points, the two are very different.
If I were to join a MP church (I'm not against it), I'd look for a church that hasn't caved to the faithlessness of liberalism, (a conservative Lutheran or Presbyterian denomination), just the same as I'd require from any Baptist church I'd join.

"When it comes to baptism, I consider myself fairly typical in the Evangelical Free Church of America. By that I mean that baptism has not played a prominent part in my pastoral ministry."
"Commonly in our churches, one’s baptismal status has no connection to church membership or to participation in the Lord’s Supper."
And Bill Hamel (EFCA President 1997-2015) recalls:
"I had the privilege of being raised in the distinctive ethos of the EFCA by godly parents."
"In the three Free Churches I attended as a child and young man, baptism was ignored"
Last year, I was an interim pastor of an ABC church.
I
had read the church
Articles of faith - and I told the church there was not one thing that I disagreed with.
In addition, they are strongly pro-life and not a so called "open and affirming" church.
The big problem - a lack of evangelism - there was no desire.
They support missionary thur the AM Bap Convention (same way as SBC)
Why no evangelism - not sure -
50-60 years ago - they were probably running 350
Now it is down to a dozen or so per week.
They are more concerned about "we've always done it that way"
and some is unimportant things -
"its the sanctuary - NOT the auditorium"
- "its a Hymn book - NOT a song book" and ect.
One lady also regualry attends
the local 7th Day Baptist church,
Sunday school only has 3 or 4 people attending - and I just herd that the SS teacher has resigned. Prior to me, the former pastor had resigned/retired.
However, he was pastor of two churches at the same time.
Tom spent most of his time at the other church - about 25 minutes away.
So to some extent - the church ran its business without a pastor.
Too add a bit to this the church broadcasted its morning service on the station I worked for - and the church was my client! ( this happen long before I became pastor)
but when I would listen in (mainly for professional reasons) I never heard the Gospel
actually preached - it was more of feel-good messages.
