Description

Based on Marucci's experience at the highest level of the game, Marucci knows that every player can benefit from having a bat tailored to their exact swing and style. Marucci has also learned, however, that the vast majority of players perform better with the most balanced bats. This knowledge, combined with the desire to help build the best hitters in baseball, have been the driving forces behind the development of the Marucci Elite line of bats. While most of the industry was working to shave fractions of ounces from their bat designs, Marucci set out to reduce their barrel weights by over 2 ounces. Such a dramatic weight reduction was not possible with standard bat manufacturing processes, but after a year of intensive research and testing, Marucci has developed and patented such a technology and is incorporating it into their new line of Elite bats. Marucci's patented technology allows for industry best weight reductions by fusing composite and aluminum materials together along the length of the barrel. By replacing the final inches of the bat, including the endcap, with aerospace grade composite materials, Marucci is removing "dead weight" from the bat and replacing it with a highly engineered structure designed to extend the sweet spot and improve the feel of the bat, all while helping to achieve industry-best swing weights. Professional hitters understand the importance of using the best equipment, they know that any small advantage they can gain from their equipment puts them that much closer to success. Marucci's patented multimaterial barrel technology offers players the advantage of increased swing speeds and more control at the plate. Join the ranks of hitters who have learned to expect as much from their bat as they do from themselves. Professionally Inspired. Precision Crafted. Marucci Elite. The Elite features the USSSA 1.15 BPF Stamp. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

BEST BAT EVER MADE Ryan player

Pros: The ball just explodes off the barrel. It's by far the best bat I've ever owned. It feels great to swing, has great balance, and has a perfectly tapered handle. This is easily the absolute best bat that you can find on the market.

Cons: None.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the Marucci Elite Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBE145? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

What's the biggest difference between the 2013 and 2014 Elite? Gizmo
The 2014 Marucci Elite will feature mostly the products and construction as the 2013 model. The 2014 Marucci Elite will feature Marucci's updated logo and graphics.
Justin R.
Can you use this bat in cold weather? Eric
We do not recommend using any non-wood bat, including the 2014 Marucci Elite: MSBE145 Senior League, in temperatures below 60°F (16°C). In those temperatures, the ball becomes much more dense and could damage or shorten the useful life of your bat. Composite can crack, and alloy can dent, so neither material is proven to be better in cold weather, unfortunately.
Mac
My son loved his -8 Marucci Black, but now needs a -5 and is torn between the new 2014 Elite and Black. What are the differences between the two? northdad
The 2014 Marucci Elite: MSBE145 Senior League and Marucci Black models both have a two-piece seamless hybrid design (composite handle fused into an alloy barrel), but that is the one similarity. The Elite is Marucci's most balanced bat because the last few inches of the alloy barrel has been removed and replaced with composite. This takes the "dead weight" out of the bat and helps players achieve higher swing speeds. The Marucci Black has an extended barrel length for an increased sweet spot, but it has a slightly end loaded swing weight because of it.
Mac
How would you compare this bat to the Combat Portent in performance and swing speeds? David
Both the 2014 Marucci Elite: MSBE145 Senior League and the 2014 COMBAT Portent: PORSL110 Senior League are top of the line bats. Both will have comparable swing speeds and performance. The main difference is the Elite will have some aluminum in the barrel, and the Portent is fully composite.
Justin R.
Can you use this in high school? baller
No, the 2014 Marucci Elite: MSBE145 Senior League is not legal for use in high school. All high school bats must be BBCOR certified. The 2014 Marucci Elite BBCOR: MCBE14 Adult is the BBCOR version of this bat and would be legal for high school play.
Tori
Which bat is better: the Marucci ONE or Marucci Elite? h5er7r
The 2014 Marucci Elite: MSBE145 Senior League is a two-piece hybrid design with an alloy barrel and composite handle. The composite handle will provide flex, creating a whip effect for added bat speed through the zone. Marucci also adds composite to the last few inches of the barrel to take "dead weight" out of the barrel, resulting in a very well balanced design. The ONE is a one-piece alloy, which will have a stiff feel.
Katie
I am going to purchase either the 2014 Marucci Elite or the 2014 Marucci Black in a 30" 25 oz. for my son. Which bat has the bigger sweet spot? Q
The 2014 Marucci Elite: MSBE145 Senior League and the 2014 Marucci Black: MSBB145 Senior League are very high performing bats. The Marucci Black has a slightly longer barrel for an extended sweet spot. The Marucci Elite will be slightly more balanced.
Kara
Do u sell a bat pack with BBCOR and Senior League bats. I need one for school ball and one for USSSA ball. turn 2
The Bat Pack Marucci Team preBCOR and Marucci Team BBCOR: MSBT5 and MCBT Red Senior League/Adult will feature both of the bat types you are looking for.
Brandon
Would this bat be allowed for a middle school team? I don't know what league it is, but do you think that it would need to be BBCOR? Long Bomb
Unfortunately, there are middle school leagues that allow the use of -5 models like the 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145) Senior League bat while others will require the BBCOR certified -3 models. It's tough to say which you may need, but a coach or league director should be able to give you the final word.
Mac
What size bat would you recommend for a 5' 3" 110 pound contact hitter? anonymous
Based on the players height and weight, we recommend a 31" model in the 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145) Senior League.
Jason
Is the Marucci Elite approved for use by Babe Ruth Baseball League (ages 13 to 15 years). Haps
The 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145 S) is legal in Babe Ruth Baseball League ages 13-15 years old.
Kara
What would recommend for a 13 year old contact hitter with some power, the Marucci Elite or the Combat Portent? Which one would generate better bat speed? Thanks. jojo
We recommend a two-piece bat for a contact hitter. The 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145) would be a great option. The composite material at the end of the barrel provides a very balanced swing weight.
Kara
I'm 5' 7" and weigh 110 lbs. What size would you recommend? kyle
The 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145 Senior League) would be best recommended in the 31"length. Your age would help identify the best weight.
Brandon
Does this bat have a faster swing speed than the Marucci Black? Also, what has more pop? Jacob
The 2014 Marucci Elite: (MSBE145) and Marucci Black 2: (MSBB28) will both have a similar weight distribution, and therefore, both of these models will have similar swing speeds. Both models will also use the same AZ3000 Alloy in the barrel. Essentially, the biggest difference will be that the Marucci Black 2: (MSBB28) will have an extended barrel to help enhance the sweet spot. However, both models will use the same materials, and will have a balanced weight distribution.
Merritt
Can you compare this bat with the Easton XL1 (-5)? Dan
The 2014 Marucci Elite Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBE145) and the 2014 Easton XL1 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL14X15) will be very different in terms of design. Both will be rated as a 1.15 BPF so their performance should be similar at their peak. The XL1 will be end-loaded and a two-piece fully composite design. The Elite will be a hybrid design with a composite handle and alloy barrel that will be more balanced. The preference between the two would be based on which style you personally prefer as a player.
Patrick
Is this bat allowed in Junior/Intermediate division baseball? What about the Easton XL1 (-5)? Dan
The 2014 Marucci Elite Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBE145) is legal for play in the Junior and Intermediate division of Little League. However, the XL1 is not legal for play, because it is a fully composite bat. All composite barrel bats in Intermediate Little League are required to have the BBCOR certification stamp.
Jason
Is the Marucci MSBB28 an approved bat for Dixie Youth Ozone play? Danny
The 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145) will be legal for the Ozone League in Dixie Youth play.
Kelby
Is this bat approved for Little League Junior League? Is it considered an alloy barrel? adam
The new 2014 Marucci Elite (MSBE145) Senior League bat is considered an alloy barrel bat. But the rule for Little League Junior League is no composite barrel allowed. This bat does have 2-3 inches of composite material toward the end of the barrel. I would not want to risk it being deemed illegal for your league. I would ask a league official or team coach before purchasing.
