Elevate your young athlete's game with the 2025 Marucci CATX2 "VICE" Alloy USSSA Junior Big Barrel Baseball Bat, expertly designed for dynamic players who are eager to bring their hitting to the next level. This special edition bat combines sleek aesthetics with exceptional performance, making it a must-have for aspiring stars on the field.
Built with a one-piece alloy construction, the CATX2 VICE offers a clean, consistent swing feel that allows young hitters to develop their skills with confidence. The precision-balanced design results in a lower moment of inertia (M.O.I.), ensuring that even the smallest players can generate impressive swing speeds while maintaining full control of the bat. This combination of speed and balance is crucial for players just starting their journey in the game.
The CATX2 VICE is equipped with a patented Liquid-Gel System that significantly reduces vibrations upon contact. With liquid-gel strategically placed in the knob and endcap, this technology absorbs shock and provides a smooth, solid feel with every swing. Young athletes can focus on their hitting without the distraction of discomfort, making practice sessions and games much more enjoyable.
Constructed from AZR Aluminum, this bat is both responsive and durable, providing an optimal feel and enhanced performance. The multi-variable wall design expands the sweet spot, allowing for more forgiving hits even when contact isn't perfect. With ring-free barrel construction, the CATX2 VICE ensures maximum flex and performance, eliminating any "dead" spots that could hinder a player's swing.
Designed with a debossed pattern, the enhanced soft-touch grip gives young hitters the comfort and control they need for optimal performance. The black 1.75mm grip feels great in the hands and provides a reliable hold during intense swings, allowing for better precision and confidence at the plate.
Certified for USSSA 1.15 BPF, the CATX2 VICE features a generous 2-3/4" barrel diameter, which helps young players cover more of the plate and connect solidly with the ball. With a -10 drop weight, this bat is ideal for kids aged 5 to 7 who are participating in coach-pitch leagues, making it an excellent choice for their developmental needs.
Backed by a one-year warranty, the 2024 Marucci CATX2 "VICE" Alloy USSSA Junior Big Barrel Baseball Bat is a fantastic investment for young athletes looking to improve their skills and enjoy the game.
