2019 Marucci CAT8 Alloy USSSA Certified Bat (-10) 21 oz 31" (Used)

The 2019 Marucci CAT8 Alloy is a USSSA certified baseball bat designed for the Kid Pitch age group (9-13 years old). It features a 31-inch length with a -10 drop weight, making it a balanced option for developing hitters who need a lighter bat for better swing speed and control. The 2 3/4-inch alloy barrel offers durability and a solid feel on contact typical of metal bats. Being USSSA certified, it meets the standards for most youth baseball leagues. This bat suits players transitioning from coach pitch to kid pitch levels, especially those who generate moderate swing speeds and want a bat that’s easy to handle without sacrificing weight distribution. Its alloy construction provides a consistent pop and holds up well over time, making it a practical choice for competitive young players focused on developing mechanics and hitting consistency. The bat is used but functional.

The Marucci CAT 8 features AZ105 Alloy, the strongest aluminum in Marucci's lineup, allowing for thinner barrel walls and improved durability. It has an expanded sweet spot and a 2nd generation AV2 Anti-Vibration Knob for better feel. With its one-piece alloy construction and tapered handle with a soft-touch grip, batters gain better control at the plate.

The CAT8 is an older model from 2019 and a good BBCOR and USSSA bat. Very good performing bat with a sound that players love. Lightweight and easy to swing. It's probably one of the best sellers, and since the CAT8 is still available, it's perhaps one of the better bang for the buck. Prices dropped for this older model. So, it is a good match for an entry-level player on a tight budget.
