2023 Marucci CATX Alloy USSSA Certified Bat (-10) 21 oz 31" (New)

The 2023 Marucci CATX Alloy is a USSSA certified baseball bat designed with a 2 3/4" barrel to provide a balanced blend of power and control. Its aluminum alloy construction delivers a durable yet lightweight feel, while the -10 drop weight (31" length, 21 oz) offers a good swing speed for youth players. This bat's stiff alloy barrel promotes a consistent pop, suited for competitive kid pitch leagues. This model is ideal for players aged 9 to 13 who are transitioning into kid pitch and need a reliable bat that meets USSSA standards. The -10 drop ensures a manageable weight for developing strength and swing mechanics, helping younger hitters generate bat speed and solid contact. The CATX Alloy is a practical choice for youth players seeking performance without stepping up to a composite bat. The bat is new and ready for play straight from the box.

The Marucci CAT X Baseball Bat features both BBCOR and USSSA certifications and is a single-piece alloy bat with a well-sized barrel and excellent feel. Its multi-variable wall Ring-Free barrel provides consistent power across leagues, while the stiff S-40 composite handle offers a balanced swing weight and reduces vibration for improved comfort. The CAT X also features liquid-gel in the knob which reduces vibrations throughout the hands.

CATX came out in 2023. The first gen is a white ribbon silver bat. For the second run, Marucci came out with a version called the CATX Vanta. It's a blacked-out, limited-edition. Both gens are an alloy one-piece bat, both very strong performers. They took the alloy and strength from the CAT9 and applied the balance and feel from the CAT8 to develop the CATX.
