Jealous of my son's bat! Shayne R Parent

Pros: Sweet swing with great pop and no vibration. Repeat...no vibration doesn't matter about weather conditions. Sweet spot seems large with a little subtle more weight in the head. I loved swinging this bat off a tee and a machine.

Cons: Pricey but not as bad as some but you get what you pay for! Batt weights seem to be bigger than it really.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the Marucci CAT8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

What’s the difference between CAT 8 & CAT 8 Connect? Jason Palenske
The main difference between the Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB and the regular Marucci CAT 8 BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBC8 is the design set up. Both bats use the same alloy but the Connect models will be a two-piece design with a composite handle; the regular CAT 8 bats are one-piece alloy. The two-piece Connect will offer slightly better vibration control and will be slightly less balanced compared to the CAT 8.
Cameron
Which bat is better in use of power: Cat 8 or Cat 8 Connect? Kody
This Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat (MCBCC8CB) features a bit of an end-load. Because of that, I would recommend this Cat 8 Connect for a power hitter.
Ben
I just entered 13-14 and I wanted to know which bat was the "best." I know about a Meta Prime, Marucci Cat 8 Connect, and Easton 360 ADV. Agus Saez
When moving into BBCOR bats a hitter will likely find that there is not one BBCOR bat that will significantly standout. A BBCOR bat, like the Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB, will perform more in line with a wood bat. Not all BBCOR bats will feature the same swing weight feel or balance and there are those that will be one-piece, two-piece, composite barrels and alloy barrels. There are also those that are hybrid bats, like the Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB. These types of bats will have an alloy barrel, composite handle and usually have a slight end-loaded swing weight feel. Which bat to ultimately go with comes down more to a player's personal preference.
Cameron
Which bat is going to be better the Cat 8 or the Connect Cat 8? Patrick McGinnis
From what we have received in reviews, the Cat 8 has been better performing than the Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB. Results will depend if you prefer a two piece bat or a one piece bat.
Ben
Is this bat really end loaded as many people say? Vic
The Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB may feel slightly end-loaded to some hitters but would not categorize this model as being a "true" end-loaded bat.
Cameron
Is the Marucci CAT 8 Connect end loaded or is it balanced? Sean Walzer
The Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB features a power-loaded barrel that results in a higher M.O.I. and end-loaded feel for effortless power.
Cameron
Is there a difference between the black cat 8 connect and the regular cat 8 connect because I noticed on here that the black cat 8 connect was labeled as slightly end-loaded and the regular cat 8 connect is labeled as end-loaded Seth
The only difference between the black and regular Cat 8 Connect is the color scheme.
Frank
What is the difference between a MCBCC8 & MCBCC8CB? Miguel
The only difference between the Marucci Cat 8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB and the Marucci CAT 8 Connect BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8 is the colorway design. The Marucci CAT 8 Connect BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8 cannot be used at the college level due to the white barrel.
Cameron

The Marucci CAT8 Connect Black BBCOR Baseball Bat: MCBCC8CB will be an endloaded bat!
