Description
The time has come! Marucci finally gave in and expanded their CAT lineup by creating a CAT 7 intended for younger USSSA players who need a drop 10 senior league baseball bat. This youth big barrel bat is guaranteed the be the most balanced bat in your bag. With a one-piece, 100% AZ4X alloy construction, this design delivers a traditional, stiff feel on contact with superior strength and a higher response rate than ever before.

On one end of this exclusive design, the innovative second-generation anti-vibration knob, also known as the AV2, provides an incredible feel at the plate with a decreased sting to the hands that is typically associated with alloy bats. As if that wasn't enough, Marucci has utilized their ring-free barrel technology on the other end to enhance the overall feel, optimize performance over the entire hitting surface, and guarantee zero dead spots for maximum performance. Marucci: Made To Rage!
This Marucci CAT 7 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) features a drop 10 length to weight ratio, a 2 3/4-inch barrel diameter, and the USSSA 1.15 BPF certified stamp.

coach/parent Mike Kennedy coach
Pros: Anti-Vibration knob, Hot out of the wrapper.
Cons: None
Great Bat!!! Coach D coach
Pros: Switched my son from a Mako to this Marucci for 11U travel and what a difference! His confidence has already increased significantly. The sweet spot seems larger than the mako and has a lot more pop with less vibration. Every time he's finished in the cages, the other players are trying to get their hands on it. It's worth the money!
Cons: None yet...curious how the 3/4 will hold up after a few games but so far, no CONS at all. Great product...very happy.
My Kid LOVES this bat! Mark W parent
Pros: Great feel. Big sweet spot. Lots of pop. Looks cool and makes a great sound. My 11 yo went from Rec/All-Stars to travel and wanted a big barrel. This has a great weight on the swing and the transition to a heavier bat was seamless. Hit his first ever homerun (dead center) in his 3rd time up. It has become very popular with his teammates too.
Cons: None yet
money grab paul parent
Pros: price already dropped from poor sales
Cons: tiny barell bad size translation price already dropped from bad sales do your self a favor and get the posey the barell was an inch and a quarter longer at its max point
Reality Check LF parent
Pros: AV2 knob
Cons: Barrel is a little shorter than the Posey. However the AV2 knob is the whole reason to buy this bat. My son used his Posey and dealt with the hand sting all last season. After this tournament with the Cat 7 I asked if he had any desire to use his Posey again and he said no. He stated the Cat 7 didn't sting his hands once. As for the negative comments about barrel length, the Posey isn't exactly the longest barrel either. If your looking for a longer barrel get the HEX connect. If you're looking for a solid bat for a confident hitter this is a great bat to consider.
20/18 cat 7 Jody Brucia parent
Pros: My son is 9 yrs old and had a cat 6 and has been a very good bat. The bat has a very good sweet spot. I would recommend very highly.
Cons: none at the moment.
Great pop!!!! Tortuga baseball coach
Pros: My son was using a combat 27 -10 and we switch him to Cat 7 and you could tell the immediate difference. The balls fly off this bat and has become a team favorite. So much so that a couple of kids have gone out an purchased these bats for their own.
Cons: None
Glad they finally made this bat acoachintx coach
Pros: AV2 knob Sweet Spot I'm not going to get on here and say this bat made my kid hit big home runs or triples galore. In an honest review, this bat has improved my kids confidence. The sting from his previous Mako and even the 516 are gone. We have probably hit about 800 baseballs with this in practices and he has used in 6 games so far. At no point does he tell me his hands are stinging from hard contact with the ball. This improved confidence has helped him overall improve his avg and slg percentages. He was so worried about the sting from the Mako Beast that he stopped using it. Not with the Cat 7 so far. Marucci has put out some great bats for older and younger leagues but glad this came out now to hit the 9-12u range of kids that just could not swing a -8 or -5 yet or needed a longer bat than a 27. We have the 29/19.
Cons: I dislike white bats-really the only problem so far is being white and showing every stain.
Awesome bat!!! Mom 08 parent
Pros: Bought this for my 10 year old who plays travel ball. Homerun first game used. Multiple other hits to the fence and line drives.
Cons: None
Great Bat Connor Fleming parent
Pros: Light weight , drives the ball farther.
Cons: None
Nice bat Brett P parent
Pros: Good pop. All around great feel and bat.
Cons: Nothing bad.
Slight dissapointment Kwantstoknow parent
Pros: It does perform well. My son swings it like it's weightless. He has very quick hands.
Cons: I specifically asked Just Bats was the sweet spot as big as the sweet spot on the Cat 6 and Cat 7 from coach pitch. You can see my question right here online. They said it was comparable/the same. Oh no it is definitely smaller. The bat is too skinny just like the F5. Also the price dropped from $225 to $199 like 2 days after I bought it. But my son still hits deep w this bat. Looking to get a Hex Connect now. A bat w a real sweet spot.
Hot out of the Wrapper! GK parent
Pros: This bay will not disappoint. Hot out of the wrapper like the old Cat 5. My 11u son put one out 225ft and he is not a big kid barely 90lbs.
Cons: None
Finally Coach Jim coach
Pros: 11U son always prefers 1 piece, but with that comes some sting on occassion. when Cat 7 with the anti-vibration knob came out, we tried it out. Bat diesn't make the players better hitters, practicing good mechanics and confidence does. in my opinion, this bat allows for both.
Cons: Nothing yet. cannot comment on durability yet, but that's why these bats have warranties.
outstanding clemon page parent
Pros: great out of wrapper, my son loves it
Cons: none yet
Great bat!! Jayyy parent
Pros: My 9u son absolutely loves the new bat! First pitch at batting practice he laced to LC fence!! Every ball hit was a solid line drive. I jammed him intentionally and he didnt complain about stinging his hands. Kid cant wait to use in tourney. Good job marucci
Cons: None
C7. 30/20 Coach Rick coach
Pros: Great pinging sound. Can be used in any temperature. Seem to jump off bat with zero vibration. Sons favorite after buying Easton Hyperlite ghost X(2018), Louisville 918(2018) and Marucci F5 (2018).
Cons: none
Best bat I've ever had Jakr Ludwig player

Cons: none
Bombs away Jac player
Pros: This bat has a ton of pop!! The ball comes off the bat hot.My son is excited for the season.
Cons: none
kris dill parent
Pros: great pop out of the wrap first weekend used ball jumped off the bat second weekend hit it even better very satisfied with the bat.
Cons: none yet
This is the bat! Matt parent
Pros: My son is on the small side. I have tried several bats: the Voodoo, CF Zen, 618 SOLO. I found with him Aluminum bats worked better, but he didn't like the vibration. The only bat that closely compared to this bat was the 618 SOLO, and even though the 618 doesn't vibrate as much, it doesn't have ad much pop as the CAT 7
Cons: Smaller kids like my son will love this bat, but stronger hitters will want to go with the -8. Vibration is a little harsher than the 618 Solo, however it is not bad at all.
Great bat!! howton team parent
Pros: lots of pop, evenly balanced
Cons: none
awesome John smith coach
Pros: great pop out of the wrapper by far the best out there so far
Cons: none
cat 7 crushers coach coach
Pros: this is the best model bat in the market hands down. ive purchased several high dollar bats for my son over the last couple years and none come close to the cat 7. our whole 8u team uses either a 27" or 28" version of this bat. you simply wont find a better bat for the money.
Cons: none
Cracked before it seen 100 baseballs UW parent

Cons: None
Terrific Bat happy go lucky parent
Pros: Great pop and balance. My son is hitting better with this bat than he has in years.
Cons: absolutely none
Decent bat but nothing special Braden parent
Pros: Good looking bat and great grip. The sweet spot seems small but if you hit it perfect its great.
Cons: My 9 year old travel baller didnt love this bat and prefers his 2017 Rawlings 5150.
Awesome bat!!! Brandon parent
Pros: Bought 27/17 bat for my 6 year old, 7U machine pitch boy. He loves it! Light swing! Great pop! He's now hitting ball to the outfield! very happy with bat
Cons: If anything, price. But its a great bat!
Dent jade parent
Pros: tons of pop in this bat, looks great and feels great.
Cons: after one weekend of a few 12u players using this bat and hitting 5 homers in the last two games, the bat already has a pretty good dent in it.
Third Cat 7 Scott Grissom parent
Pros: This is the third Cat 7 purchased in my house. The first two were -8 and -5 models for my middle child. Never had an issue with either one of those, just ages have different drops that they use. This 30/-10 was purchased for my youngest child. He has had several composite bats and we wanted to go back to a one piece aluminum and the Cat 7 was the only one we really wanted to go with because of the success we've had with this bat in prior use.
Cons: no Cons
Top of the line Bat Parent and Coach coach
Pros: The Cat 7 has more (PoP) ball speed than the more expensive composite bats and is much better balanced. Younger batters can swing this bat much faster and with better mechanics than a end loaded composite. The bat is ready to go out of the wrapper and just as good in cold weather as it is in warm weather. Try to find a composite that can do that. I promise your Kid will enjoy this Bat and the vibration dampener really works. We had the Cat 6 and was very satisfied and even more satisfied with Cat 7.
Cons: nothing so far
Great bat ED coach
Pros: No "sting" Great pop straight outta the box and with 500+ hits on it Excellent feel Bought 30 -10 for my 9 y/o, now half the team is swinging this thing
Cons: None
great bat Ryan Johnson parent
Pros: From the very first hit the pop was unbelievable. Now after his first game using it other kids from his have been using it with great results. The absolute balance of the bat makes it feel lighter than other bats of its size. He said thst he hasn't felt any vibration. I would recommend this bat to anyone.
Cons: none
WOW! just WOW! Baseball dad parent
Pros: First time BP with it my 9 year old is hitting tape measure one hop shots to a 215ft fence! The smile on his face is priceless! and he's been hitting with the Louisville Slugger Prime 916 prior to the Cat 7. I definitely recommend this bat to any player.
Cons: He does feel a little sting with fastballs from his coach but feels nothing when hitting a pitch from kids
cat 7 citizen player
Pros: pop feel durability and anti vibration knob
Cons: none
as good as advertised Happy Dad parent
Pros: Bat seems to have a lot of pop not just in barrel area. it is extremely balanced. The grip is very comfortable and perfect size for 12 yesrs olds hands
Cons: every kid wants to use it. haha
Best Bat I Have Ever Owned!! Jake L player
Pros: Good pop, the weight is well distributed throughout the bat so it is not end loaded
Cons: Nothing
Decent AC31 player

Max Max player

Love this bat Kevin Parent
Pros: My son love this bat. First time up to bat and first pitch was a home run in the winter indoor baseball league.
Cons: None to date.
Cat 7 M Christman Coach
Pros: Good priced bat and feels great in my sons hands. Seems well balanced for his swing and has great sound when struck well. We have only had it for about a month and only hit batting practice with it 8 times or so. When we use it more I can give more detail about it.
Cons: None yet.
Incredible Bat Luke Welling Coach
Pros: This is our third cat7 for my son. He consistently hits it farther the any other bat including more expensive two piece bats. The pop this bat has in incredible.
Cons: None
Son loves it Stephen Coach
Pros: He wanted a cat 7 and all I could find new was the senior league. He said he didn’t care he wanted it and first at bat hits a dinger.
Cons: Non
8-9 year old moving into kid pitch D. Worrell Parent
Pros: Same Pop when getting the ball barreled up. Same sound and feel as the Junior league bats that he really loved. He likes this batter better than his 2018 Rawlings Velo, but I think this is just because almost everyone on his team swings a version of the CAT bat. Only complaints of vibration are when he caps a pitch and even then it is not bad.
Cons: Not as forgiving as the Junior league version. Barrel taper begins sooner on the Senior league bat and that has taken him some getting use to.
Awesome bat Joe Landolfi Parent
Pros: My kid loves this bat
Cons: Wish they had it in a USA model
nice bat Bret Eubank Parent
Pros: great balance; little vibration; good overall pop (sweetspot) my 10 and 9 year-old boys have enjoyed it; only had it a month
Cons: none so far
Marucci CAT 7 John Ernst Parent
Pros: So far so good! Has used it in a couple of games and the pop of the ball off the bat was amazing!
Cons: I don't have any negatives.
11U son loves it! Gary B Parent
Pros: Ball explodes off the barrel!
Cons: none
It's now the team bat Greg Parent
Pros: First hit was a bomb. Now all the kids on the team use the bat. It is affectionally called "The Ruch." It certainly is getting a workout
Cons: none so far
Value Joe Parent Parent
Pros: Balance
Cons: Complaints of vibration when hit on end cap; not too harsh though.
My team has 4 of these Rod Coach
Pros: Great feel and pop.
Cons: None
Great bat for the price D Coach
Pros: Great feel, low vibration and decent pop
Cons: Has a dent after 100ish hits
Son loves it Brian Wilson Parent
Pros: Lots of pop, could tell right away. My son is not the biggest kid and he was definitely hitting it farther with this bat than the Easton he had before. Very little vibration, just loves the way the bat feels in his hand.
Cons: None that I know of. Hard to judge durability after a month of use. Bought this bat after cracking the endcap off another bat (different brand) early in the season.
Awesome bat 30/20 (drop 10) Jeff K Coach
Pros: Much less vibration. Large sweet spot as you would expect. Great pop, sounds like aluminum which may not be preferred but my kid loves the bat
Cons: Maybe not as much pop as the Mako but considering this is an old model and is 2 3/4 inch, this is probably the best value for under $180. The Cat8 has a different casing and the "ping" is not as loud but I don't know that I would recommend spending the extra $150-200 for it.
Disappointed Israel Estrada Parent
Pros: My 9 year old son loved the bat. The ball was jumping off the bat which led to one hoppers to the fence in a Little League baseball field. In addition there was almost no vibration .
Cons: Unfortunately after using for the third time the end cap busted. Obviously my son was really disappointed given how much fun he was having swinging the bat.
Marucci Cat7 Keith Rodriguez Coach
Pros: My son told me the bat has more pop to it. He is really enjoying the bat.
Cons: No cons yet.
Cat 7 Jeff Parent
Pros: Everything
Cons: None yet
Cat 7 Rick Ras Coach
Pros: None

Cons: None yet
Great bat! Ken Parent
Pros: Tons of pop out of the box. Love the sound it makes when my boy gets ahold of one
Cons: No cons as of yet
Bang for the buck Mike Parent
Pros: Bought last years model for a great price. First at bat second pitch my 10 year old hit one over the 210ft fence. The sound was amazing.
Cons: None yet
Outstanding Coach B Coach
Pros: Bat was delivered 1 day before a big tournament. Big pop right out of the wrapper. Best tournament of my son’s career - which I know is not just because of the bat - but the extra base hits and home runs were plentiful. He loves it.
Cons: None
Just purchased Ron Coach
Pros: No vibration.
Cons: Not the pop we expected. Seems to have a variable sweet spot. Disappointed. The rating on durability is NA as we just purchased. Wasn't worth the $$ even at the discounted price. If something changes and it was just a bad day, I will post another review to reflect any additional pros.
Great bat. My sin loves it Angela Perez Player

I"m looking to move up my son to a CAT 7 28/18 -10 from a CAT 7 27/17. But I"m undecided because somewhere I read the Marucci Hex 2 28/18 has a longer barrel or sweet spot. Is this correct? We are use to the CAT 7 junior big barrel and wouldn"t want to get the CAT 7 28/18 over the Hex 2 if the sweet spot is bigger. Can you confirm this?

My son is 8 and plays travel ball. I bought the drop 8 version of the senior league model in a 2 5/8" barrel because some of the leagues will not let the kids use the 2 3/4" barrel, and the -10 is only a 2 3/4" barrel. He can swing the drop 8 but is a bit heavy for him and his teammates but if they square it up it's a nice hit.

I am looking at purchasing the Cat 7 for my 9 year old who plays travel baseball. He takes a lot of swings. This might be a silly question, but is there a typical swing amount that a bat will be good for before it needs replaced? Maybe its 10,000 swings or something? Not sure if the manufacturers place a swing 'life' estimate on these bats or not. JZ

I’m looking a new bat for my 10 years old who is turning 11 soon. He is 4'9" tall and 93 lbs. He is using a Combat Maxum 28"/18 oz. I’m trying to decide between this Marucci Cat 7 or the Hex Alloy. Looking for more pop and good balance for his swing. Which one is more recommended please? Really appreciated your recommendation. Thanks. Tania
How does this compare to the Hex Alloy 2? My 9 year old uses a USA Solo 618 29"/18 oz in Little League and he ropes line drives and pops fly balls just past 180 ft. He swings it with confidence, after hitting mostly grounders from his Rawlings, and we're now looking for a USSSA bat for travel ball. Narrowed it down to this or the Hex 2 so please advise. Other suggestions? Prefer 2 3/4" barrel with anti-vibration. Ruben
Does it need to be “broken in” like others? Ron

The Marucci player advisory board was integral in testing, tweaking, and ulitmatley perfecting the glove line to have the feel and features that matter to players. Understanding this professional standard of perfection has allowed us to handcraft a performance product that will last consistently maximize your game. Handcrafted, one by one, with the highest quality materials, for superior quality and feel, these gloves will require a gradual break-in period which provides a longer lasting form and shape. Professionally Inspired. Precision Crafted. Marucci: Honor the Game.
