2023 Marucci CATX Alloy USSSA Certified Bat (-10) 19 oz 29" (Used)

The 2023 Marucci CATX Alloy is a USSSA certified youth baseball bat designed for competitive Kid Pitch play. It features a 29-inch length with a -10 drop weight (19 oz), balancing swing speed and control for players aged 9 to 13. The alloy construction offers durability and a solid feel at contact, while the 2 3/4" barrel provides a standard hitting surface suitable for various swing types. This model is built to meet USSSA standards, so it’s eligible for use in most youth leagues following those rules. The bat is used but remains a reliable option for players progressing into more competitive youth baseball. This marucci CATX Alloy bat suits players who have developed some bat speed and are looking for a balanced, lightweight option to improve their hitting mechanics. Its drop and weight work well for kids transitioning from smaller, lighter bats to higher performance gear, helping them generate power without sacrificing bat control. It’s a solid choice for players in the 9-13 age range who are regularly facing kid pitch or travel ball competition.

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.
