2021 Marucci CAT9 Alloy USSSA Certified Bat (-8) 24 oz 32" (Used)

The 2021 Marucci CAT9 Alloy is a USSSA-certified baseball bat designed for youth players in the 9 to 13-year-old kid pitch age group. It features a 32-inch length with a 24-ounce weight and a -8 drop, providing a balanced combination of control and power for young hitters transitioning to more competitive play. The 2 3/4-inch alloy barrel offers durability and a responsive feel at contact, allowing for consistent performance in game situations. This model is used but fully functional. This bat is well-suited for developing players who have the strength to handle an alloy barrel and want a reliable option for league play under USSSA rules. The length and weight balance helps improve swing mechanics while maintaining enough mass to generate solid bat speed. Ideal for players who are progressing beyond entry-level bats and looking for a step up in materials and design.

The Marucci CAT 9 features a single piece of aluminum with multivariable wall thickness, extending the sweet spot and reducing swing weight. The CAT9 features a Ring-free barrel which allows for more flex within the barrel and minimizes dead spots through the bat. This model includes new technologies like the AV2 knob to dampen sting on mishits and is available in BBCOR, USSSA, and USA versions.

“

My son really likes the CAT9. He likes the weight distribution and how it feels when he catches it clean with his “A” swing. He also feels like there’s a margin for error on his “B/C” swings. It’s his first BBCOR, which has helped make the transition to the big field manageable.
