How Baseball Bat and Knife stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

The franchise's signature street weapon — a wooden bat that stuns and downs pedestrians in two or three swings. Used in early Grove Street missions and easy to pick up around basketball courts, baseball diamonds, and gang turf.

A combat knife that lets CJ perform silent stealth kills when crouched and approaching enemies from behind — essential for the burglary side-mission and several Las Venturas heist setups. Spawns in kitchens, on Vagos members, and behind certain restaurants.
