The 2025 Marucci CATX2 Puck Knob Alloy BBCOR Baseball Bat is meticulously engineered to redefine your performance at the plate. Carrying forward a legacy of athlete-driven advancements, the CATX2 incorporates the latest technology to push the limits of what a BBCOR bat can achieve. The innovative puck knob is designed for athletes transitioning to BBCOR, those facing high-velocity pitchers, or players looking to improve top-of-the-zone coverage. It’s also an excellent choice for athletes with lower grip strength, offering a lighter feel and improved control.
One of the standout features of the CATX2 is its lighter, more balanced design. The puck knob creates a sensation of swinging a bat as light—or even lighter—than some -5 Senior League bats, making it an ideal choice for first-time BBCOR players. This design allows for a seamless transition to BBCOR without sacrificing performance. Additionally, the lighter feel of the bat not only enhances control but also enables players to generate more bat speed, leading to harder and faster-hit balls.
The CATX2 also offers the advantage of a longer bat length without the usual trade-offs. Thanks to the puck knob, players can opt for a longer bat to maximize reach and barrel length, enhancing both power and control. The increased barrel length, paired with a refined shape, adds ½” more to the barrel while maintaining the same balance as the CATX, ensuring that you can cover more of the plate and deliver powerful hits with ease.
The bat's construction features Marucci’s renowned one-piece alloy design, providing a traditional swing feel that is clean and consistent. The AZR aluminum alloy used in the barrel is both responsive and durable, delivering better feel, more forgiveness, and higher overall performance. The multi-variable wall design expands the sweet spot, while the ring-free barrel construction allows for more barrel flex and increased performance with no "dead" spots.
To enhance comfort, the CATX2 includes a Liquid-Gel System in the knob and endcap, which reduces and absorbs vibrations from both ends of the bat, providing a smooth, solid feel during contact. The thinner handle design allows for better bottom-hand control, and the custom-molded handle taper is ergonomically designed for a better fit, more control, and a superior overall feel.
