2021 Marucci CAT9 Connect Hybrid USSSA Certified Bat (-8) 22 oz 30" (Used)

This used 2021 Marucci CAT9 Connect Hybrid is a USSSA certified bat specifically designed for young, competitive players aged 9 to 13 who are transitioning into kid pitch. This bat features a 30-inch length and weighs 22 ounces with a -8 drop, making it a balanced choice for hitters who prefer a lighter swing for better speed through the zone. The hybrid construction combines an alloy barrel for maximum pop with a composite handle that dampens vibrations on contact, providing a more comfortable feel on hits. The 2 3/4" barrel diameter offers a larger sweet spot, enhancing performance for developing players. This model is ideal for players looking to improve their hitting performance while maintaining control. Its specs cater particularly well to those who are beginning to face more advanced pitching and want a bat that offers both power and precision.

The Marucci CAT 9 Connect is designed for hitters who prefer an end-loaded feel and enhanced power. It features a multi-stage-treated AZR alloy barrel paired with a carbon composite handle, creating a large sweet spot. The stiffer connection reduces vibration and maximizes power, while the end-loaded swing weight helps generate bat speed for crushing pitches.

The CAT9 Connect is going to be in the same market as the Select Power, The Goods, and the Voodoo. It's a two-piece hybrid alloy barrel with a composite handle. It's a top-three bat for me. Very good performer and very popular. Just a great overall product.
