Pitcher's won't know what hit 'em when you step to the plate with this midnight black CAT8 BBCOR Bat! Be the talk of the town and make sure to get your own CAT8 today with fast, free shipping.
Bat Benefits:
One of the main differences from the CAT 7 is the new and improved AZ105 Alloy, the strongest aluminum on the Marucci bat line, allows for thinner barrel walls, a higher response rate, and better durability. Its 2 5/8-inch barrel provides an expanded sweet spot for more base hits. The 2nd Generation AV2 Anti-Vibration Knob features a harmonic dampening system for better feel and less negative vibrational feedback. The barrel is also precision-balanced for a lower M.O.I, resulting in a lighter feel as you swing and giving you better precision and control. Its one-piece alloy construction provides a clean, consistent swing, and the tapered handle with its soft-touch grip is topped with an ergonomic knob shape for more top-hand control and comfort while you're at the plate.
Warranty:
Marucci is backing this monster of a bat with a full twelve (12) month manufacturer's warranty. Marucci: Honor The Game!

Marucci Cat 8 BBCOR MCBC8CB and/or Marucci Connect BBCOR. How thick is the bat handle? My son is 14 yrs old and prefers a skinny handle. Chubby Carson
I bought my son the Cat 7 BBCOR, used for his transition between USSSA and BBCOR. He was super happy with his bat. He loves his balanced bats, not end-loaded. For his birthday I gave him the Cat 8 BBCOR Black, of the same size (31/28) and says that the difference is very felt, it looks like an end-loaded bat, is completely dissatisfied by that change of bat that I made.

Is this bat a USSSA bat? David Chaffee
Getting my son his first BBCOR bat and want a very light swinging bat. He's not a huge fan of composite and he's definitely on the small side and a contact hitter. He loves the cat line but have heard the Louisville solo is very light swinging also heard good things about ax. Is it true about the solo? Is it one of the lightest bats and how's the pop compare to the cat lineup. Thanks Jason Jason
Is the bat light, for an 11 year old boy? Filip
