I'm confused by the question... I think you're looking for the day of the scout update (Feb. 24, 2009). Like other weapons, it says when it was patched in but does not say any of its original abilities. [[User:BASEBALLFURIES|BASEBALLFURIES]] 03:17, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Sandman + Ball

I propose we replace the original Sandman picture shown in this article with one containing the Sandman and the Baseball. The ball is just as important and the bat, and is also the first thing the player will see when using the Sandman for the first time.--Focusknock 15:07, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

I'm on it. OllyTheMann 17:28, 15 September 2010 (UTC)



Sandman and HHH

Does a Sandman ball count as a melee hit for the HHH achievement? Orbisidian


"Sandman" name reference

Under trivia, a user noted the reference to the folklore creature "sandman," and while this seems like a very likely inspiration, it may also have some connection with the baseball "sand-lots" common in city areas (i.e. Boston, where the scout comes from). Does anybody else think this might be a valid addition? Even if not for "trivia," it may be find a home under "list of references." GenericCola 05:54, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

References to other media are tricky to pin down; the reference to the sandman creature makes sense because it puts enemies to 'sleep', whereas your reference to sand lots makes sense as it links to the Scout's background. I would suggest adding it onto the sandman creature trivia as a possibility, though this might not go down well with trivia patrollers.--Focusknock 15:49, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
Well, it's worth a try I suppose. Is it not? GenericCola 22:09, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
