Baseball bat

A baseball bat is a long wooden shaft with a large end used for hitting balls. Wait... that didn't come out right. Come to think of it... it actually sounds quite pervy. Stop laughing. Stop it, I say! Anywho, a baseball bat is used in the great ole formerly favorite American past time known as Baseball. Basically, when a pitcher from an opposing team throws the ball at you, you whack it with the bat, then run around a large diamond-shaped pattern until you return to your starting point, hopefully before a member of the other team fields the ball and returns it to base.

In the 2016 feature film Suicide Squad, the character of Harley Quinn used a baseball bat as one of her preferred weapons of choice. She liked pretending to shoot it as if it were a gun.
