When Todd Zeile was with the Yankees, he threw his bat at a pitch-out with a runner going to second, and hit a perfect hit-and-run bullet through the vacated 3-4 hole. It was the greatest thrown-bat base hit I ever saw---on a pitch-out!
Tony Oliva of the Twins used to throw his bat at pitches all the time. He flung it on a lot of follow-throughs, too.
