According to Newton's third law of motion, the force exerted by the ball on the bat would be equivalent to the force exerted by the bat on the ball. Therefore, if the bat hits the ball with 1000 N of force, the ball would also hit back on the bat with 1000 N of force.

you would have to know the price of the bat first
The bat does experience a reaction force from the ball. However, the bat's mass is much larger than the ball, so it doesn't move backward significantly due to the difference in mass. Additionally, the bat player's grip and stance help to absorb the force and prevent significant backward movement.
5 cents
Yes. The ball is moving, right? It has both momentum (mass times velocity) and kinetic energy (one-half the mass times the velocity squared). When you hit the ball with the bat, the energy of the ball is transferred to the bat, and the bat imposes its own energy and momentum to the ball.
All things being equal, the bat, the ball, the force used etc., the same thing that happens when a boy hits a ball with a bat.
