&box-NEW YORK (Reuters) -- It hung in a Virginia garage for years, but now a baseball bat from Nazi Germany is touring the United States with a Baseball Hall of Fame exhibit.

The bat, used by American journalists and diplomats held captive in Germany in 1941-42, was given to the Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York, by Angus MacLean Thuermer, an American reporter working in the Berlin bureau of the Associated Press when Germany invaded Poland.-box&
