Description

Marucci CAT 9 Composite -8 USSSA Baseball Bat: MSBCCP98

Marucci is renowned for their alloy-made CAT bats. However, these CAT 9 Composite bats will bring performance to the batter's box as well! Check one out today!

Bat Benefits

This CAT 9 Composite will deliver a two-piece baseball bat that will limit the vibration that can get to your player's hands (even if they don't square it up perfectly on the sweet spot)! A really unique feature to the two-piece design is the OLS (Outer-Locking System) Connection Point that fuses the barrel and the handle together. That OLS piece creates a stiff feel at contact with a baseball. This means that there won't be a "flex" feel when you hit a baseball with this bat (the "flex" feel is very common for two-piece baseball bats). The stiff feel will allow the hitter to feel as though all the power they put into their swing goes into the baseball. 

There is plenty more to this bat than just the excellent connection point. Definitely take note of the MDX Composite material on the barrel. That material places the fibers of the composite material in differing patterns to create a very responsive barrel!

Lastly, this drop 8 bat will come with a slightly end-loaded feel. In spite of that barrel heavy feel, JustBats and Marucci are confident that both power and contact hitters can grab this bat and perform well in the batter's box!

Warranty

Marucci is always trying to create loyal customers! Because of that, they do offer a twelve (12) month warranty on this bat! If you get the bat and discover a structural or performance issue on the bat within a year of the purchase, please reach out to the JustBats team of Bat Experts. These Bat Experts are trained in product and warranty knowledge and will certainly help you out in organizing a warranty replacement with Marucci!

13 yr old with not a lot of upper body strength. Can be late on pitches (although moving from 50ft to 60 ft mound this season). -8 or -5? 31 inch. C
For a smaller player at 13U, we would recommend a -8 model, like the Marucci CAT9 Composite -8 USSSA Baseball Bat: MSBCCP98. If the player is stronger, or at 14U, then one would want/need to go with a -5 bat.
