Yes it does, but only ever so slightly, mostly because a person holding a bat is not a solid structure, so inevitably the person will move with the bat, when the ball is struck.

Does a baseball bat slow down when it hits the ball?
Yes, because the velocity of the ball is acted upon an outside force (Newton's law of motion.)
How does finction cause a ball to slow down?
Friction between the ball and the surface it's rolling on causes the ball to slow down. As the ball moves, frictional forces act in the opposite direction of its motion, converting some of its kinetic energy into heat. The rougher the surface or the more contact the ball has with the surface, the greater the friction and the faster the ball will slow down.
How do you slow down a ball?
If u want to slow down a ball then put your foot on the ball
What happens to the momentum of a baseball bat when it hits a baseball?
Why would a baseball be hitting another baseball?
Why does a ball rolling on the ground slow down?
A ball rolling on the ground slows down due to friction between the ball and the surface it is rolling on. As the ball moves, frictional forces act in the opposite direction of its motion, causing it to lose kinetic energy and gradually slow down. Additionally, air resistance may also contribute to the slowing down of the ball.
Does friction cause a golf ball to slow down?
Yes, things such as longer grass and water on the greens will slow a ball down.
Where might it possible to kick a soccer ball and have it never slow down?
You can kick a soccer ball (football) in outspace and it will never slow down.
What is the velocity for a baseball ball rolling on grass?
It depends on the initial velocity, and it also depends on time, because the friction of the grass will slow the baseball down.
What forces slow a ball down?
Friction.
Will a knuckle ball slow down your fastball?
Yes
Why is it so hard to hit the slow paced ball?

Can a paint ball gun slow down a zombie?
