CATX2 BBCOR
Meticulously calibrated to push the limits of performance, the CATX2 continues a legacy of athlete-driven advancements and exceptional engineering. The CATX2 features patented anti-vibration technology in the knob and endcap to reduce and absorb vibrations from both ends of the bat. As always, the CATX2 is constructed with a ring-free, multi-variable wall design allowing barrel diameters to be built to the maximum limit, creating more surface area and higher overall performance. Not just built better, built different.
Meticulously calibrated to push the limits of performance, the CATX2 is fueled by athlete-driven innovation and unparalleled engineering.
Liquid-Gel System
Patented anti-vibration technology features the optimal amount of liquid-gel in the knob and endcap to reduce and absorb vibrations from both ends of the bat, creating a smooth, solid feel during contact.
Increased Barrel Length
Refined shape adds 1/2" more barrel length, while maintaining the same balance as the CATX.
Wider Sweet Spot
The advanced internal wall design more evenly distributes mass across the entire barrel for a wider, more consistent sweet spot.
Custom-Molded Handle Tapers
Ergonomically designed for each weight drop for a better fit, more bat control, and a better overall feel between athlete and bat.
Marucci's Baseball Performance Lab (BPL) advances the game of baseball by optimizing and tailoring equipment to better meet an athlete's needs. In a game of precision, BPL developed a groundbreaking metric to revolutionize the way we select bats.
BALANCE POINT INDEX [BPI]
The combination of length, weight, and balance
| Length | BPI |
|---|---|
| 29 | 41 |
| 30 | 47 |
| 31 | 53 |
| 32 | 59 |
| 32.5 | 61 |
| 33 | 65 |

BPI is an inferential bat metric that allows players and coaches to accurately understand how one bat swings compared to another.
BPI ALLOWS US TO:
- Quantify feel - "How end-loaded is end-loaded?"
- Design bats in different lengths without changing feel
- Isolate certain characteristics while altering others
- Design bats for specific pitches or zone coverage
