“This all-American, hardwood, baseball bat will knock anything right out of the park.”— Fallout 2 description
The Louisville Slugger is a melee weapon in Fallout 2.
Gameplay
One of the best two-handed melee weapons, second only to the super sledge. One disadvantage is that, like the super sledge, it knocks back opponents, forcing the user to chase a target to hit it more than once a turn. That said, it is great for crowd-controlling hand-to-hand attackers because, when holding position, they're forced to move back again and will probably make fewer attacks.
Locations
It is received as a reward for helping Ethyl Wright bust up Wright's still.
Behind the scenes
The bat is named for the real-life brand of baseball bats manufactured by Hillerich & Bradsby.
