2023 Marucci CATX Connect Hybrid USSSA Certified Bat (-5) 27 oz 32" (Used)

Used for 1 season (Spring of 2024) and is lightly used. No cracks, dents, rattles etc. The 2023 Marucci CATX Connect Hybrid is a USSSA-certified bat designed for kid-pitch players aged 9 to 13. This model features a -5 drop weight, making it ideal for those who want a balance between bat speed and power. The 2 3/4" barrel diameter and hybrid construction combine the responsiveness of an aluminum barrel with the feel of a composite handle, providing a solid and forgiving hitting surface. The two-piece design helps reduce vibrations on contact, which can be beneficial for young hitters still developing their swing. This bat is well-suited for competitive players looking to enhance their performance at the plate. Its construction makes it easier to generate bat speed while still retaining some weight for solid contact. With attention to the transition into kid-pitch play, this bat can help young players increase their confidence and hitting proficiency. The item is used but remains in good condition, ready for its next player.

The Marucci CAT X Connect Baseball Bat, available in BBCOR and USSSA versions, features a two-piece hybrid design with an AZR alloy barrel and a stiff S-40 composite handle. Its Ring-Free barrel offers a large sweet spot for consistent power, while the 10 times stiffer S-40 handle ensures faster energy transfer and minimizes vibration. This design enhances performance and increases the chance of home runs.

“

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.
