How Baseball Bat and Shotgun 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 pump-action 12 gauge — the workhorse close-range gun of San Andreas. Earn Hitman shotgun skill to walk-and-shoot, then chain shells through pedestrian crowds with no reload lag.
