Ignite your game with the 2025 Marucci CATX2 Connect "Vice" Hybrid USSSA Baseball Bat, a special edition designed for athletes who demand the ultimate in performance and style. This bat combines sleek aesthetics with innovative technology to help you bring the heat on the diamond. With its powerful design, the CATX2 Connect VICE is engineered to enhance your performance and keep you at the top of your game.
The two-piece hybrid construction features an S-series composite handle paired with a responsive AZR alloy barrel, specifically designed to generate power with every swing. The power-loaded barrel offers an end-loaded, high moment of inertia (M.O.I.) profile that helps you unleash maximum energy, making it easier to send the ball flying deep into the outfield.
With the patented Liquid-Gel System, this bat minimizes vibrations at contact, ensuring a smooth and solid feel swing after swing. The OLS Connection is uniquely designed to connect the barrel to the handle from the outside in, providing the stiffest connection possible while effectively dismissing vibrations. This means a stronger, more controlled swing that translates to performance.
The S-25 Composite Handle is engineered based on player feedback, offering a 15% reduction in stiffness compared to previous models. This provides added whip and less vibration, enhancing your overall control. The multi-variable wall design increases the sweet spot, making it more forgiving on off-center hits. Meanwhile, the ring-free barrel construction allows for added flex and optimal performance without any dead spots.
The CATX2 Connect VICE also features a custom-molded handle taper, allowing for an ergonomic fit that improves bat control and comfort. The thinner handle design promotes better bottom-hand control, giving you the confidence to dominate at the plate.
With a generous 2-3/4" barrel diameter and USSSA 1.15 BPF certification, this bat is ready for action in any youth league. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to elevate your performance. Get your 2025 Marucci CATX2 Connect "Vice" Hybrid USSSA Baseball Bat today and experience the power, precision, and style that will help you take your game to new heights!

QUESTION: Should I order this bat with Free Shipping or Upgraded Shipping?
ANSWER: It just depends on how quickly you need it. This ROLLED & READY Bat is ready to ship and will generally ship same day if ordered before 1PM EST. Our free shipping method is just the cheapest method available to your address, which is usually a 2-6 day transit time but is NOT guaranteed. The upgrade options specify their transit times. UPS 2 Day Air and/or UPS Next Day Air are popular options for customers needing a bat quickly.
QUESTION: Why is this bat priced higher than retail?
ANSWER: After being disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the bat supply chain still isn't back to 100% normal. Many popular bats (in their most popular sizes) are next to impossible to get - as a result, we're willing to pay higher than retail prices for them in the secondary market so that we're able to make them available to our customers. Many customers value performance and convenience over price, so our "Rolled & Ready" inventory is purchased with this in mind.
