Batty's pose is very good (though he seems to be holding the bat between two "fingers"), but you could add a lot more to the "unity" of the scene.
With punching in general, you have to treat the target like a ragdoll. For example, look at the fighting tutorial on Polykarbon. You've applied this concept to the bed thing in the middle, but it seems separated from the whole scene. To show the force of the hit (especially in cartoons), spread that force out a little.
Here is your scene now. I chose to just show the TV and the pinata. You can see the bat is swinging the bat (hah, irony) madly, but it doesn't seem strong enough to bash in a TV or cause someone to hide under a rug.
If we move a bit of that force outwards to the Pinata and TV (or even characters), the collision looks a lot more powerful (it should, anwyay. Ignore the sucky diagram).
On a side note, you didn't turn a year older in two hours. You were turning a year older for a whole year, you just finished recently.
