Moe Cronin

Moe Cronin is a merchant that resides in the Swatters shack located in Diamond City market in 2287.

Background
Moe Cronin, a "baseball" enthusiast, sells customized baseball equipment and apparel for the sole purpose of killing. If spoken to, Moe tells the Sole Survivor what he believes baseball was - two teams armed with deadly modified baseball bats battling to the death. The baseball bats of the surviving winners of the game were called "Swatters" and therefore set the tradition of "next generation baseball". He also believes that baseballs were given to the children of dead players, baseball gloves were used to absorb bullets, and that baseball cards kept track of a player's kills.

Quests

 * Out in Left Field - Moe will ask the player to recover for him a signed baseball, signed catcher's mitt and signed baseball card in Westing Estate.
 * Find the Treasures of Jamaica Plain - Moe will buy the 2076 World Series baseball bat from the player. He will spend from 200 to 400 caps for the item, depending on the success of several speech checks.

Other interactions

 * If the player interacts with him after his store closes, at the Dugout Inn, he'll drop the vendor's attitude for rude remarks towards the player usually saying "Beat it."
