Like, I don't think we have the option of spending an hour modding the weapons, you just kinda get what you get.
depending on the bat, say an aluminum bat for example.
the very bottom edge of the bat can also make make for terrific (as in scary) blunt weapon. If aimed at persons head particularly it can be a pretty dangerous weapon.
otherwise the using the bat normally, with regular swings you can effectively neutralize your opponent by aiming for their limbs/hands and punish them with extra blows to the body. Though the moment they lose their weapon should make most of them lose their will to fight and likely runaway.
