Softball implements (4)

I believe the answer is:

bats

(Other definitions for bats that I've seen before include "Very eccentric" , "Pipistrelles, for example" , "Mad - nocturnal creatures" , "Night-flying creatures" , "Take a stab at the night creatures" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
