Marucci CAT 5: MSB2 Senior League |
Average Customer Review
Bought this bat due to the new bat restrictions being placed at all levels and figured it would be a great transition bat for my 13 year old to BBCOR bats. He found it to have great balance, characteristics of both a metal bat for durability and a composite bat for great pop in the sweet spot. He's a line drive hitter but has hit a few bombs to the deeper fences. Great bat for a contact hitter.
Sweet spot is not as big as the full composites. (But is still a great bat or equal when compared to more expenseve bats!) Not a well known bat so getting full "buy in" from a youth is important when all his friends are swinging those more expensive Combat, Easton or Demarini bats.
Bought this bat for my son because it was the only bat that qualified for his middle school in my price range. I can't tell you how pleased I am with this bat. He loves it. He has had the best games of his life with this bat. It is well balanced and has absolutely no sting so he does not hesitate to try and smash the ball. His coach says that he swings as if he is hitting a beach ball instead of a baseball. He just steps up and kills it because he has no fear of a sting if he misjudges. Get this bat, you won't be sorry.
NONE...
My son says he really likes the feel of the bat. It appears to have pretty good "pop" as well.
Unfortunately, he has only used it a short time and the grip tape is bunching up at the knob. I wish I had a local rep that would repair under warranty. My son can't afford to go without the bat to send it off for repair.

Ask A QuestionI am a power hitter and I am 5'0", 111 pounds. Would the Marucci CAT 5 or Marucci Black be better?
Power hitters typically prefer a one-piece bat and contact hitters typically prefer two-piece designs. With that being said, the Marucci CAT 5 is a one-piece alloy design that works great for power hitters and the Marucci Black is a two-piece hybrid design that works great for contact hitters. If you are a power hitter, I would suggest going with the Marucci CAT 5.
Is this a big barrel bat?
Yes, the Marucci MSB2 would be considered a big barrel at 2 5/8 inches. For more bat information feel free to contact our customer service at 1-866-321-2287.
I have a 12 year old son, 5' tall, 83 lbs. Looking for right size bat.
Based on his height and weight, I would suggest going with a 30 inch bat. As far as weight is concerned, it is generally recommended to move up an ounce or two each time you buy a new bat. I would probably move up a couple ounces from the bat he is currently using.
