Marucci Cat 9 connect “pastime” 30/25-5 Usssa

Brand New Marucci Cat 9 connect 30/25-5. CAT9 CONNECT | LINE SPECIFICATIONS Utilizing a three-stage thermal treatment process, our new AZR alloy offers a more responsive microstructure for better feel, more forgiveness and more performance while maintaining the same strength as its predecessor One-of-a-kind, OLS, Outer-Locking System, attaches the barrel to the handle from the outside in, creating the stiffest connection available, while dismissing virtually all vibrations on contact for the strongest, smoothest swing yet Using a Longitudinal Groove System, LGS, across the thickest section of the barrel wall allows for excess weight reduction while also increasing flexibility for an increased performance zone (BBCOR ONLY) Multi-variable wall design creates an expanded sweet spot and thinner barrel walls that are more forgiving after off-centered contact Ring-free barrel construction allows for more barrel flex and increases performance with no “dead” spots Power-loaded barrel results in a higher M.O.I. and end-loaded feel for effortless power Two-piece hybrid design combines a carbon composite handle with the AZR alloy barrel designed for power Professionally inspired handle features a removable taper and an ergonomic knob shape for more top-hand control and comfort (BBCOR/-5 only) Micro-perforated soft-touch grip with extra tack improves feel and control

The Marucci CAT 9 Connect is designed for hitters who prefer an end-loaded feel and enhanced power. It features a multi-stage-treated AZR alloy barrel paired with a carbon composite handle, creating a large sweet spot. The stiffer connection reduces vibration and maximizes power, while the end-loaded swing weight helps generate bat speed for crushing pitches.

The CAT9 Connect is going to be in the same market as the Select Power, The Goods, and the Voodoo. It's a two-piece hybrid alloy barrel with a composite handle. It's a top-three bat for me. Very good performer and very popular. Just a great overall product.
