*A long, wooden stick. Good for beating things. Enough said.*— Weapon Description in *Saints Row: The Third* and *Saints Row IV*.

## Overview

Available at the very beginning of the game, and carried by many civilians, this melee weapon has a good knockdown effect, and thus keeps its usefulness throughout the game.

### *Saints Row*

In *Saints Row*, the Baseball Bat costs $10 from Friendly Fire, and is used by both Chicken Ned and Laura.

The Hitman Targets Thomas and Marty must be killed with a Baseball Bat.

### *Saints Row 2*

In *Saints Row 2*, the Baseball Bat costs $50 from Brass Knuckles, and is often used during the Crowd Control and Fuzz activities. It is also available in Zombie Uprising and is a fair weapon to use against them, but if the cheat "Milk Bones" is activated, it One Hit Kills them.

### *Saints Row: Total Control*

The Baseball Bat is a basic weapon in *Saints Row: Total Control*, costing Cash instead of premium Gold.

### *Saints Row: The Third*

In *Saints Row: The Third*, the Baseball Bat is wooden. It is available in Friendly Fire for $250 but is rarely dropped by angry pedestrians and sometimes used by disarmed gang members, after being taken as a Human Shield to make them drop their gun, they'll pull out a melee weapon. It's also dropped by various Assassination targets, such as Tony.

There is only one upgrade level, which adds railroad spikes and chains wrapped around it, and costs $2500. If the weapons store hack is chosen during "http://deckers.die", it's about $1,875 to upgrade.

### *Saints Row IV*

The Baseball Bat makes its fifth appearance in *Saints Row IV*.

There are 2 base game costumes for the Baseball Bat: **Homer** and **Rat Stick**. These Costumes are the same as the Weapon Upgrade options in *Saints Row: The Third*, but now there is a choice between them rather than a permanent visual change.

An additional 2 more costumes are available in DLC packs: How the Saints Save Christmas and Stone Age Pack.

Damage can all be upgraded 5 levels, with a separate **Mmm, Giblets.** "ultimate upgrade".
