The 2023 Marucci CATX Alloy USSSA Certified bat is designed for youth players in the Kid Pitch age group (9 to 13 years old). This model features a 31-inch length and a -5 drop weight balance, with a 2 3/4-inch barrel diameter constructed from alloy. The CATX Alloy offers durability and a consistent feel typical of alloy bats, providing a reliable pop and balanced swing weight. It meets USSSA certification standards, making it legal for approved youth league play. This listing is for a used bat. This CATX Alloy is suitable for developing hitters who need a dependable, well-balanced bat for competitive play at the 9-13 age range. The -5 drop allows a good combination of control and power, making it easier for younger players to optimize swing speed without sacrificing bat speed. The alloy build suits players looking for a sturdy bat with a solid contact feel versus the lighter weight of composite options.

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.
