"Obviously,-" Sadly. "-this lesson will not be about Quidditch and Beater's Bats, though. So, any idea what a Muggle could be doing with this?" As if to emphasize his point Jeremy tossed the bat in the air and caught it again as if he were juggling. A part of Vashti knew this lesson couldn't possible be about Quidditch - it was Muggle Studies after all and Muggles didn't play Quidditch - but she couldn't help getting her hopes up anyway. So of course she was sad when the professor admitted the lesson had nothing to do with Quidditch. Sigh.
But what Muggles sports used a bat? Oh yes, she knew this one, though she had never been extremely fond of most Muggle sports. Despite being Muggle-born. "Muggles play baseball with a bat," she answered after raising her hand. "Or cricket."
