How to use bat in a sentence?

1. Houston Astros:

   Following the game, Houston Astros manager AJ Hinch addressed Kulpas comment. BRYCE HARPER RETURNS TO DC, RESPONDS TO BOOS WITH LONG HOMER, EPIC BAT FLIP Thats what he said, thats apparently what he meant, i mean hes in charge. Obviously, you make a scene and I guess everybody has to pay attention but well let the league sort it out.

2. Bob Melvin:

   The expectation level is really high for us late in games, i think any time we get in a position where we feel like we have a chance to win the game here at home with the last at-bat, we always feel good about it.

3. Seth Rogen:

   If someone's trying to murder someone with a baseball bat and someone's yelling at that person to stop, is that a feud between the baseball bat wielder and the person yelling at the baseball bat wilder? Feud implies two people hitting each other with baseball bats. Ted Cruz is a fascist. He denies the reality of the election. His words caused people to die and I'm making jokes about it. Is that a feud? I don't know. To me, it doesn't seem like a feud. To me, it seems I'm pointing out the fact that he's a terrible man whose words have resulted in death.

4. Shohei Ohtani:

   Ideally, I would have liked to finish that inning off, but they have a really good lineup, and they were fighting each at-bat and getting my pitch count up.

5. Anthony Rendon:

   I was actually pretty happy about the delay. I got to sit down for a little while before I got the at-bat, it's just part of the game. We're all human, mistakes happen. No one is going to feel sorry for you.
