I'm hoping that baseball bat is just because an ordinary wand can't handle enough magic.

Probably so, given that the energy capacity of a wand/spell-catalyst supposedly scales with its mass. Tedd probably also wanted something with less length than the typical mage staff, and so went with the baseball bat.

I wonder if an equal mass (vs volume) of bamboo will hold as much magical power as wood does.

In that household, there's more likely to be problem if the birds are eating the squirrel feed.

Yes.  We are getting old.  No, in at least my case, am old.
