Used 2023 Marucci CAT9 Connect USABat Certified Bat (-11) Composite 17 oz 28"

BARREL PERFORMANCE TECHNOLOGY: AZ105 Aluminum Composition: Strongest aluminum on the Marucci® bat line, which allows for thinner barrel walls, a higher response rate and better durability Ring-Free Barrel: Boasts more barrel flex and increased performance with no ''dead'' spots Multi-Variable Wall Design: Creates an expanded sweet spot and thinner walls that are more forgiving after off-centered contact HANDLE PERFORMANCE TECHNOLOGY: Upgraded SDX LT Connection Piece: Utilizes a precision cut dampening layer directly molded between the barrel and handle to dismiss vibration, while decreasing the weight Carbon Composite Handle: Helps transfer more energy faster from athlete to ball for more performance

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.
