How to draw a baseball bat step by step | Simple Easy Drawing


For a lot of us, baseball is one of our favorite sports, especially in the United States. Many grow up playing baseball in school or local leagues during the summer, and even as adults many love watching it on TV. One of the most important elements of the sport is the baseball bat, and today I’m going to help you draw one. But before we begin, here is a cool fact: The fastest baseball pitch ever recorded was over 105 mph. That’s faster than many cars drive on the highway.

Here’s an easy step by step tutorial that will help you create a simple and easy baseball bat drawing. It takes less than 2 minutes to complete. Let’s get started!

Please note: In each step, the new parts of the drawing will be highlighted in orange, while everything you’ve already drawn will stay in black.

Step 1: Draw the baseball bat barrel

Step one of the drawing shows a long, slanted "U" shape that forms the thick top part, or barrel, of the baseball bat.

Start by drawing a long “U” shape tilted at an angle. This will be the thickest part of the bat where the ball hits. Keep the top nice and rounded.

Step 2: Draw the baseball bat handle

Step two of the drawing shows two narrow, parallel lines extending from the bottom of the barrel to create the thin handle.

From the bottom of the barrel, draw two shorter lines pointing down. Make these lines much closer together than the first ones. This creates the narrow handle for the batter to hold.

Step 3: Draw the baseball bat knob

Step three of the drawing shows a small, flat oval added to the very bottom of the handle to form the rounded knob.

At the very bottom of the handle, draw a small horizontal oval. This connects the two lines and forms the knob at the end of the bat.

Now you can add some color! Use a light brown or tan for the wood and a bright color like green or red for the handle grip. I’ve also added two curved lines so it can look like you’re swinging the bat.
