Marucci CAT8 Connect (-3) BBCOR Baseball Bat - 2019 Model

New for the summer of 2018, Marucci is introducing their CAT8 CONNECT BBCOR Baseball Bat (-3). The CAT8 CONNECT offers a hybrid design with a carbon composite handle combined with an alloy barrel.

The Marucci CAT8 CONNECT BBCOR Baseball Bat utilizes Marucci's AZ105 Alloy and end-loads it to create maximum power for the hitter. The AZ105 Alloy construction is extremely durable and allows for thinner wall construction to increase performance. A multi-variable wall design gives the hitter an extended sweet spot and increased barrel flex in the sweet spot. The high-performing alloy combined with a huge sweet spot provides the hitter with a bat that's ready to do some damage.

Marucci's SDX EXT connection technology minimizes the vibrations felt at contact while also maintaining a certain level of stiffness that players desire. An extremely comfortable and tacky soft-touch grip helps complete the overall feel and performance of the CAT8 CONNECT.

The Marucci CAT8 CONNECT BBCOR Baseball Bat is BBCOR certified, making it eligible for high school and collegiate play.

If you are a competitive hitter who likes two-piece bat and feeling more weight at the end of the barrel, check out the Marucci CAT8 CONNECT BBCOR Baseball Bat (-3).
