Description
Take your game to the next level with the new and improved Marucci bat lineup. 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. Additionally, the SDX EXT, or Extended Shock Dissipating Connection, increases the bat's overall stiffness for maintaining energy transfer to the ball while diminishing unwanted vibration to the player's hands. Another upgrade for the lineup is the 2nd Generation AV2 Anti-Vibration Knob that features a harmonic dampening system for better feel and less negative vibrational feedback. Marucci Sports: Honor the Game.
This Marucci CAT 8 Connect BBCOR baseball bat features a -3 length to weight ratio and 2 5/8 inch ring-free barrel construction important for increased barrel flex and reducing the likelihood of dead spots, so every ball you hit can travel high and far. 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. This bat is BBCOR certified for high school and collegiate baseball play, and it comes with free shipping and a full one-year manufacturer's warranty. Don't forget, with our expert customer service, we will be here for you from click to hit!

Pros: Marucci does it again! I had the Cat 7 Connect BBCOR all last season, and I loved it. I had to get the Cat 8 Connect and I was amazed that this bat is better than the last. Pop is there, the end-loaded feeling is there, and no vibrations. Great swinging two piece bat that's actually a little stiffer than the 7, which I love!
Cons: Graphics are so clean I don't want to get it dirty.
Pros: Feels good. No sting. Pretty stiff for a 2 piece. Seems to have more pop than my Beast X.
Cons: None!
Pros: My 13 y/o was swinging the DeMarini -5 which is a great bat, but needed to go to a BBCOR. I've been doing a ton of research on bats and we decided to go with this one. Bat came in on same day as a tourney. Pulled it out of the box and then went 3-4 with two smoking doubles. He said it does have a slight end weight, but nothing drammatic; plus he liked it. He absolutely loves the feel and the overall swing of this bat. He told me "this is one of the best bats I've ever had." Great pop! Now the rest of the team is starting to swing it as well (ugh).
Cons: Still has the loud ping, which is awesome during games but when inside the indoor batting cage it does get loud. Not really a bad thing because in a game its really cool!
Pros: Lots of pop good end loaded feel. sounds great when you hit it on the sweet spot it echoes and also sounds great. Balls fly off this bat.Kid loves it. Great bat for a great player.Seems like the barrel is a little bigger then the cat 7 also a bigger sweet spot
Cons: None
Pros: Balaned
Cons: No pop. I was hitting the ball over the head of outfielders in high school with my CAT 7 Connect -3. I tried the CAT 8 Connect for one weekend tournament and haven't used it since.
Pros: The ball flies off this bat. Will be using this bat for high school and travel ball. A couple of my friends have swung mine and are waiting for theirs in the mail!
Cons: The ball comes off too well! Sometimes I think that I hit the ball too far!
Pros: Best bat I have swung this year. Can't wait to see what damage I can do with it.
Cons: color way is alright
Pros: For a two piece, the CAT8 is great. It has the perfect combo of balance with a slight end loaded feel. A ton of pop too.
Cons: Took a few swings to get used to but I was hitting them over the fence all BP
Pros: My son loves the feel of this bat. Which is great as he has been an Easton player since little league.
Cons: None
Pros: My 13 yo B Team player had been swinging his all aluminum Marucci bat a lot more this spring. He started complaining about his bottom wrist progressively hurting more each week. As a DC I took several films thinking it was a hammate frx. When that wasn't the case the next thought was the bat vibration irritating his growth plates. As soon as he started using the Cat8 connect his wrist felt better, and 2 weeks later its now pain free and were hitting about 250 plus balls a week.
Cons: I gave the bat 4 stars on durability cause we've only had it 2 weeks
Pros: I like how it feels good wherever I hit it. I never feel like I jam myself and it has a nice sound. The end loading keeps me focused on keeping my hands inside.
Cons: I don’t personally like the grip that comes with the bat-I should have ordered the Lizard Skin Grip.
Pros: This bat has almost no feel on hits and the sweet spot is huge! Definitely recommend this bat for a stronger guy with the amount of pop and mass in the barrel this bat launches balls!
Cons: No cons what so ever!
Pros: Very very good sweet spot like as good as The Goods. Amazing pop. I would compare it to the Select PWR and if you barrel it up it goes as far as The Goods. Swing weight is similar to the Select PWR.
Cons: Grip tape
Pros: this bat has a giant sweet spot and tons of pop. it has a slight end load feel. i like this bat more than my goods. i was hitting balls 88-92 mph of a tee with the goods with the cat 8 connect i was hit balls 90-94 mph.
Cons: nothing so far
