2021 Marucci CAT9 Alloy USSSA Certified Bat (-10) 21 oz 31" (Used)

The 2021 Marucci CAT9 Connect Hybrid is a USSSA-certified bat designed for the Kid Pitch age group (9 to 13 years old). It features a 31-inch length and a -10 drop weight, weighing in at 21 oz, which strikes a balance between control and power for developing hitters. The hybrid construction combines a composite handle with an alloy barrel, offering a solid feel while maximizing swing speed. The 2 3/4" barrel size meets USSSA standards and delivers a consistent sweet spot. This model is built in the USA and comes in a black finish. It is used but well maintained. This bat suits players in the Kid Pitch age range who are transitioning into more competitive play and need a lightweight, balanced bat to improve swing mechanics without sacrificing pop. The -10 drop is standard for this group, helping young players generate bat speed and control, making it a practical choice for both practice and game situations.

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.
