The 2024 Marucci CATX2 Alloy BBCOR Baseball Bat, featuring a -3 drop and a 2-5/8 inch barrel, is a pinnacle of design tailored for high school and collegiate players who seek the highest standards of performance. This bat extends Marucci's tradition of blending athlete-driven innovations with exceptional craftsmanship, setting a new benchmark in baseball equipment.
The CATX2 is engineered with patented anti-vibration technology in both the knob and endcap, significantly reducing and absorbing vibrations to deliver a smoother, more comfortable batting experience. This technology enhances player confidence during contact by minimizing the sting from off-center hits.
Constructed from AZR aluminum, the CATX2 offers a responsive and durable structure that enhances feel and forgiveness. This advanced alloy, combined with a one-piece design, provides a clean, consistent, traditional swing feel. The bat's precision-balanced design results in a lower Moment of Inertia, promoting faster swing speeds and improved control.
Significant to the CATX2 is its refined barrel shape, which adds an extra half-inch of length while maintaining the bat's balance, thus enlarging the sweet spot. This adjustment, coupled with the ring-free, multi-variable wall design, ensures a more evenly distributed mass across the barrel, enhancing performance and increasing the forgiveness of off-centered hits.
The thinner handle of the CATX2 facilitates enhanced control in the bottom hand, complemented by a custom-molded handle taper tailored for each weight drop. This ergonomic feature allows for a better fit and enhances the overall feel between the bat and the athlete, enabling more precise bat control. Additionally, the bat's enhanced soft-touch grip, featuring a debossed pattern, improves grip and control during swings.
This BBCOR-certified bat comes standard with a white 1.75mm grip, though grip weight and manufacturing tolerances may cause slight deviations from the listed weight. Each CATX2 bat also includes a one-year warranty, underscoring Marucci's commitment to quality and performance.
Designed for serious athletes who demand the best, the Marucci CATX2 Alloy BBCOR Baseball Bat is not just built better—it's built different, offering unmatched performance that allows players to maximize their potential at the plate.
