Summary
Great for stunning zombies and getting them away from you, and making a quick escape. Also, take note that the damage is decently high, so if you run out of ammo you can use it to kill zombies. However, due to its high stamina use, this is inefficient and you'll run out of stamina quickly, so you should mainly use this to stun zombies to make a quick getaway or to finish them off. Great for striking crowds of zombies down!

Background Story
A staple of many zombie apocalypse stories and movies, the baseball bat is the definition of a classic weapon. L-Brain Sidework knew this, and decided to finally begin mass production of a hard hitting Baseball Bat that had a swing that pounded zombie brains into mush and sent zombies flying like a baseball. A few survivors wanted to put barbed wire and nails on it, but L-Brain Sidework assured them that this version would be fine. People who have been seen tampering with this product haven't been seen since.

Tips

 * The Baseball Bat pushes zombies very far back, you can use this on Capture the Base to keep zombies away from the flags.
 * Be careful, one swing consumes 15 energy, which is a lot. Manage your targets, and try to use the swing to hit multiple zombies at once if possible.
 * Most of the time, the targets will be knocked down and will be out of reach either due to being on the ground or being flung away from you.
 * If they are on the ground, crouch to hit them.
 * If they are farther away, either run away, shoot them, or walk to close the gap.
 * Running isn't recommended due to the high stamina usage of this weapon.
 * Bring Candy Cane or the juices to boost stamina for this weapon
