The 2021 Marucci Cat 9 Composite America Pastime -5 USSSA Baseball Bat is one of the more popular USSSA bats on the market today. On the travel ball scene, Marucci products are one of the most proven and popular models out there. These bats do start out stiff and take a considerable amount of breaking in. We highly suggest to heat roll these bats to help loosen them up. Shaved, our level 1 service is our recommendation for optimum performance / durability combination. Overall a very solid product which gets hot and stays hot !
