A Dugout, sometimes called a one-hitter, "chillum", "Hitter Box, Straight-shooter, Bomber, bat, batty a oney (pronounced one-knee), a pinchey, or a "tote a smoke," pinger(because it makes a "ping" when you open it), One Hitter a device used to facilitate discreet personal use of marijuana.

The One Hitter is a rectangular (or sometimes cylindrical) wooden object with two compartments. The larger compartment stores the marijuana and a cylindrical compartment is used to store the pipe used to smoke the marijuana.

The special pipe which the hitter-box stores is often called a bat, One Hitter, or simply hitter. One Hitter closely resembles a cigarette in size and appearance. One Hitter may be painted gold/yellow on the stem and white down the length to mimic the coloring of a cigarette. Metal, ceramic, or glass in construction, One Hitter has a shallow recess into which the marijuana is loaded. A narrow artery, through which the smoke from the marijuana is channeled, extends from the recess to the opposite end of the pipe.

The One Hitter has a swiveling or sliding door which caps the two compartments. A spring at the bottom of the cylindrical compartment pushes the end of the pipe out of the box when the door is opened so that it can be extracted from the box. The sharp edge of the recessed end of the pipe allows the pipe to be loaded by burrowing it into the marijuana compartment. The marijuana can then be smoked by lighting it with a flame as one would light a tobacco cigarette. Often the metal of a lighter is held in front of the pipe to reflect the light emitted from the burning marijuana, allowing the user to monitor the burn while inhaling the smoke.

The One Hitter and bat metaphor alludes to the athletic sport baseball. This is an elaborate metaphor which can be easily explained. The pipe is often called a One Hitter because the recess holds only enough marijuana for one hit(One Hitter), the term used for a single inhalation of marijuana. Baseball bats are used to hit baseballs, and One Hitter pipe is cylindrical in shape like a baseball bat. Additionally, because to load the pipe, it is burrowed, or dug, into the marijuana compartment, this explains the term One Hitter—the marijuana is dug out of the container. In baseball, the One Hitter is the box in which the players sit when not on the playing field. In this context, it is the box in which the marijuana sits.

To further the baseball metaphor, the One Hitter pipe or bat is also called a pinch hitter, because it loads just a pinch at a time. While the primary use may be for marijuana, a One Hitter system can also be used for smoking tobacco. One Hitter is sometimes marketed under the name "Tobacco Taster".
