Try the manufacture of your throwing wheel, (internet, phone, etc.) or check the size, or remove the splash pan, to compare against others that are similar in size an shape, or take it to a Tinsmith, they can make you a new one. (I know a fellow who made one out of an old tire)

Why do people call pottery bats that name?

Definition: Bats (noun) in pottery are usually the discs made of plaster, wood products, or plastic which attach to the wheelhead of a potter's wheel (pottery wheel). These discs allow ware to be moved from the wheel as soon as it is thrown without damaging or deforming the pot. Bats can also be working surfaces. For example, large square or rectangular bats can be made of plaster and used as an absorbent surface to wedge clay and dry out very wet clay. The word itself derives from the same root that has given us the baseball bat.Examples: After throwing and trimming the vase, I carefully took the bat off the wheelhead and put it on the shelf so the pot could dry while I continued to work on the wheel.* http://pottery.about.com/b/2008/04/15/pottery-word-of-the-week-bats.ht
