The Marucci CATX2 Connect -8 features a two-piece hybrid construction with a 2 3/4 inch barrel diameter and an end-loaded swing feel, which optimizes power.

This bat is USSSA 1.15 certified, ensuring it meets the performance standards required for youth competitive play.
Engineered with AZR Alloy, the CATX2 Connect -8 undergoes a meticulous 3-stage thermal treatment process, enhancing the microstructure of the alloy for a responsive feel and increased forgiveness. This advanced treatment boosts performance without compromising the strength of the material. The bat also features a multi-variable wall design that expands the sweet spot and produces thinner barrel walls, increasing forgiveness on off-centered hits and ensuring consistent performance across the entire barrel.
The ring-free barrel construction of the CATX2 Connect -8 eliminates dead spots, maximizing barrel flex and enhancing performance with every hit. The custom-molded handle taper is ergonomically designed to match each weight drop, offering a better fit and improved bat control, which is crucial during high-stakes games. The micro-perforated soft-touch grip adds comfort and ensures a secure hold, reducing slippage and enhancing the overall batting experience.
With its striking silver, white, and red color scheme, the Marucci CATX2 Connect -8 not only delivers exceptional performance but also stands out with its bold aesthetics. It comes with a full twelve-month manufacturer's warranty, providing assurance of its quality and durability.
