New Marucci Cat9 America BBCOR Certified Composite 30 oz 33" Baseball Bat

SKU40053-344 Marucci has built this bat in a 2-piece and all-composite design. The barrel is going to be contrived from the MDX Composite design that places the carbon fibers of the barrel in many layers and at many different directions to create a bat that is ultra-responsive! That composite barrel is locked into the composite handle by the OLS (Outer Locking System) Connector Piece. This connection system incorporates a threaded groove that internally locks the barrel and handle together. And then they complete the connection with the external sleeve that puts an extra hold on the connection point. All of the technology at the connection point results in less vibration getting to a batter’s hands -PLUS- a super-stiff feel at contact with a baseball. In past years, the flex feel was desired on 2-piece bats, but as more and more players are looking to add a power aspect to their game, they have found that the stiff connection benefits their potential to knock the ball to the fence and beyond. Ultimately with this bat, you’ll get a 2-piece BBCOR that limits vibration and delivers the stiff feel to boost power potential. Lastly, this Marucci BBCOR bat will feel a little barrel-heavy. Typically, JustBats recommends barrel-loaded bats for power hitters. However, we believe that the slightly heavy barrel on this bat can be managed by both contact and power hitters C&S SPORTING GOODS 7822 N 12th Street Phoenix Az 85020 (12th Street and Northern) STORE HOURS ~MONDAY- FRIDAY 10am to 6:30pm, SATURDAYS 10am to 6pm and SUNDAYS 11am to 4pm View our full inventory on our website BUY-SELL-TRADE Family owned and operated local business

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.

They took the same design from the CAT8 and strengthened the CAT9 with a stronger alloy to avoid any denting issues. It's a very good, durable bat. The CAT9 will be a bit heavier than the CAT8; it's a better bat for stronger players. The first generation of the CAT9 came out with a gray, black, and red paint job. The second generation they called the Past Time, which was red, white, and blue. It's the same bat, but a different paint job. The second bat was more popular simply because of how it looked. Everyone likes the American Flag with its Stars and Stripes.
