Baker's dozens enter this sack (9)
I believe the answer is:
thirteens
'baker's dozens' is the definition.
('thirteen' can be a synonym of 'baker's dozen')
'enter this sack' is the wordplay.
'sack' indicates an anagram (sack can mean destroy or spoil).
'enter'+'this'='enterthis'
'enterthis' is an anagram of 'THIRTEENS'.
(Another definition for thirteens that I've seen is " numbers".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
