Like I'm going to tell you all...
. I would use double set of manipulators that would resemble tweezers, and space them out so they grip a baton easily and do not have to be lined up just right, or I could use a conveyor belt with little C shapes on it to make like a belt flipping batons behind it into goals or whatever they are scored in. Going by history though, I would look for balls not batons...but then again, it is FIRST so it can be unpredictable.
