Marucci CATX Connect (-8) USSSA Baseball Bat - 2023 Model Size 31in./23oz

Introducing the 2023 Marucci CATX Connect (-8) USSSA Baseball Bat. The CATX Connect is a 2-piece bat, featuring an alloy barrel and a composite handle. The 2023 CATX Connect has an AZR Alloy bat which is a complex combination of thermal treatment processes to strengthen the alloy for a more responsive, forgiving feel. Marucci has also featured their Multi-Variable Wall Design on the 2023 CATX Connect, creating an expanded sweet spot and thinner barrel walls that are more forgiving after off-centered contact. The composite handle is Maruccis S-40 Handle, which is a stiffer composite handle to help transfer more energy faster from player to ball for more performance. In a one-of-a-kind design, Marucci has also included their Outer-Locking System to the CATX Connect. This creates the stiffest connection available, while dismissing virtually all vibrations on contact for the strongest, smoothest swing yet. A new barrel profile on the CATX Connect more evenly distributes the mass of the ring-free, multi-variable wall design across the barrel for a wider and more consistent sweet spot. Lastly, Marucci has included an ergonomically designed handle taper for each weight drop, allowing a better fit, more bat control, and a better overall feel between athlete and bat.
