Doing one-third of the Scattergun's damage at point blank range, players may use the weapon to finish an opponent when out of ammunition, when their other weapons need reloading, or simply for additional humiliation. Its Critical hit animation depicts the Scout swinging it backhandedly.

  • During the TF2 Beta, a team-colored label was displayed on the Bat. Upon release, the label was changed to green and gray for both teams.
  • The Scout's default Bat is made of aluminum. The first aluminum baseball bat was actually made in the 1970s, at least two years after this game ostensibly takes place.
