Bring the heat and elevate your game with the 2025 Marucci CATX2 Connect VICE Hybrid USSSA Baseball Bat. Designed for dynamic athletes who push the limits, this special edition bat blends sleek style with next-level performance, making it the perfect tool for power hitters.
Crafted with a two-piece hybrid construction, the S-Series composite handle and AZR alloy barrel combine to offer maximum power and performance. The AZR aluminum composition strengthens the alloy through advanced thermal treatments, providing a more responsive and forgiving feel with every swing. The ring-free barrel eliminates dead spots, creating more barrel flex and an expanded sweet spot for better contact, even on mishits.
With the multi-variable wall design, the bat boasts thinner walls that maximize performance, giving you a wider and more consistent sweet spot, while maintaining the bat’s responsiveness. The power-loaded barrel features an end-loaded design with a high M.O.I. for effortless power, allowing you to swing with authority and send the ball soaring.
Designed to enhance swing control, the OLS connection system creates the stiffest connection available between the barrel and handle, eliminating vibrations and providing the strongest and smoothest swing possible. The S-25 composite handle offers 15% less stiffness than the CATX Connect handle, delivering more whip and reducing vibration during contact. Additionally, the Liquid-Gel System—a patented anti-vibration technology—absorbs and reduces vibrations from both ends of the bat, ensuring a smooth feel with every hit.
