This article is about the Scout's stock melee weapon. For other uses, see Bat (disambiguation).

The Bat is the default melee weapon for the Scout. It is an aluminium baseball bat with rubber grip tape, a faded green-ish blue label, and a large dent on one side.

The Bat does less damage per hit than all other stock melee weapons, but swings 37.5% faster.
