If there were thousands of bats or a cave full of bats i would see a doctor about it just in case. There have been rare reports from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention of contracting rabies from bats where there were lots of bats in caves and it is unknown sometimes how the person got rabies. Do you think some of their droppings or saliva got on your mouth? If so you need to see if you need to get re-vaccinated or in the one you had was close enough. I don't know if your antibodies would cover both exposures or not.
