Take both ends off and dump a little baking soda / water in the end with more space. Let stand for 20 - 30 minutes and the batteries should slide out the baking soda will help remove unwanted corrosion

If you can screw either end off do that and try bumping it lightly with your hand,but be careful and don't get any of the acid on you,you might want to hold it over the garbage can.....

try a screwdriver. Do not touch the corrosion. The acid will burn and melt your skin.

remove both ends and knock it out with a hamer handle

unscrew both ends and slide a screw driver down one open end and push it out the other.
