2023 Marucci CATX Connect 30/20 USSA Bat

Bat is in great condition. Lizard Skin Grip. Tightened production tolerances allow barrel diameters to be built to the maximum limit, creating more surface area and higher overall performance Stiffer S-40 Composite handle helps transfer more energy faster from athlete to ball for more performance One-of-a-kind Outer Locking System design creates the stiffest connection available while dismissing virtually all vibrations on contact for the strongest, smoothest swing yet Made of AZR aluminum, a complex combination of thermal treatment processes strengthens the alloy for a more responsive, forgiving feel 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 increased performance with no “dead” spots Ergonomically designed handle taper for each weight drop allows for a better fit, more bat control, and a better overall feel between athlete and bat Micro-perforated soft-touch grip for improved feel and control

The Marucci CAT X Connect Baseball Bat, available in both BBCOR and USSSA versions, is a two-piece hybrid design. It combines a AZR alloy barrel with a stiff S-40 composite handle for the best of both worlds. The CAT X Connect's Ring-Free barrel boasts a large sweet spot for consistent power on contact, while the S-40 handle (which is 10 times stiffer than previous composite handles) allows for faster energy transfer to the ball. Additionally, the stiff connection minimizes vibration and maximizes energy transfer, translating to more balls leaving the yard.

“

The CATX Connect is a hybrid bat. It's a strong performer. It's top five in the hybrid market. Very easy to swing, very well balanced. There's a good nature to it; it doesn't dent. It's very durable. But it is an end-loaded bat and a two-piece hybrid, so it's more designed for the power hitter and for stronger players.
