Bat is used and recently replaced warranty bat that wasn’t used for much of the season. My son has grown out of this size and no longer allowed to use drop 5 bats.

The CATX Connect is a hybrid bat. It's a strong performer. It's top five in the hybrid market. Very easy to swing, very well balanced. There's a good nature to it; it doesn't dent. It's very durable. But it is an end-loaded bat and a two-piece hybrid, so it's more designed for the power hitter and for stronger players.
