It is sexual slur used in Jamaica, Belize and the rest of the Anglophone Caribbean to describe gay men. The term is a Jamaican abbreviation of the word bottom into batty; "batty boy" is a cognate of the American English "butt boy". Usage is commonplace in some Caribbean cultures where homosexuality is condemned, partially as a result of Christianity as well as Rastafarian beliefs.

...Of course, you already knew that and are just trying to make a very crappy joke about the word "batsman", aren't you?
...unless you mean Gareth Batty, the spin bowler at Worcestershire or John Batty, the wicket-keeper at Surrey? But I'll bet you've never even heard of them....

A jamaican term for one who is a male homosexual. A concatenation of the jamaican words for the human posterior (batty) and man.
