Marucci USSSA Certified CAT8 Connect (-5) Alloy 25 oz 30" (Used)

The Marucci CAT8 Connect is a two-piece hybrid baseball bat designed for power hitters. It combines a power-loaded AZ105 aluminum alloy barrel with a composite handle for maximum performance. Key features: * Two-piece hybrid construction: Combines a power-loaded AZ105 aluminum alloy barrel with a composite handle for optimal performance. * SDX EXT connection: Increases stiffness for better energy transfer and reduces vibrations for a smoother feel. * End-loaded swing weight: Designed for power hitters who prefer a heavier feel at the end of the bat. * Ring-free barrel construction: Increases barrel flex for better performance. Used 1 season, only chips and scratches in the paint. Never left outside in rain or cold conditions. No cracks or webbing. Bat is in good condition

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.
