You are thinking of the Baseball bat. The ball itself is not a lever. The bat is a lever, in the sense that it magnifies the motion of your arms.

Why is a baseball bat a lever?

a baseball bat is a "lever" in the way that the ball comes off the bat. When the baseball makes contact with the bat, the bat gives, or bends. What causes the ball to then travel is when the bat snaps back into a straight object. Thus, the bat is, in a way, a lever.

What type of simple machine is a spatula?

There are six different simple machines: the lever, the pulley, the wheel and axle, the screw, the wedge, and the inclined plane. A shovel would be a wedge, since it separates portions of an object. A seesaw would be a lever, since it applies force at one end and delivers at the other. A baseball bat is also a lever, since when you swing it, you apply force from one end onto the incoming baseball on the other. The pulling end of a hammer would be a lever, since it applies force on one end, which pulls out the nail on the other.
