Marucci CATX2 2-5/8" BBCOR Bat w/Puck Knob -3oz (2025)
ROY'S RATING: 4 stars
Meticulously calibrated to push the limits of performance, the CATX2 Connect Puck Knob continues a legacy of athlete-driven advancements and exceptional engineering. The CATX2 Connect Puck Knob features a one-inch knob extension moving the balance point closer to the hands to help generate faster swing speeds and a lower swing weight. Plus, the addition of liquid gel in both the knob and end cap reduces vibrations at both ends of the bat, delivering a smooth feel at contact. Not just built better, built different.
For more power, size up two sizes from your current CATX2. The 1" knob extension counterbalances the barrel and allows you to take advantage of a 1" longer barrel, without sacrificing bat speed.
Features:
Puck Knob is a 1" knob extension that counterbalances the weight of the barrel, creating a lighter feeling, faster-swinging bat
Optimized Barrel Profile is a more evenly distributed mass of the ring-free, multi-variable wall design across the entire barrel for a wider, more consistent sweet spot
One-piece alloy construction creates a clean, consistent, traditional swing feel
AZR Aluminum is responsive, durable, provides better feel, more forgiveness, and more performance
Precision-balanced barrel produces a lower M.O.I. for precision and control
Liquid Gel System is Marucci's patented anti-vibration technology that features the optimal amount of liquid gel in the knob and end cap to reduce and absorb vibrations from both ends of the bat, creating a smooth, solid feel during contact.
Multi-Variable Wall Design expands the sweet spot and makes thinner walls for more forgiving off-centered performance
Ring-Free Barrel Construction allows for more barrel flex and increased performance with no "dead" spots
Thinner handle leads to more bottom hand control
Custom-Molded Handle Taper is ergonomically designed for each weight drop for a better fit, more bat control, and a better overall feel between athlete and bat. Designed to be easily removable to fit athletes’ preferences.
Enhanced Soft-Touch Grip is a debossed pattern that creates improved feel and control
Comes standard with a white 1.75mm grip
Grip weight and manufacturing tolerances may cause slight deviation from the listed weight
1-year manufacturer's warranty
The Puck Knob is an excellent choice for:
Athletes transitioning to BBCOR
Athletes looking to improve top-of-the-zone coverage
Athletes who are facing a high-velocity pitcher
Athletes with lower grip strength

The BBCOR formula provides a better measure of the bat's performance and therefore allows the rules committee and bat testing laboratories to better predict field performance based on lab tests. The goal is that non-wood bats that meet this new standard will perform similarly to wood bats. All BBCOR bats will incorporate a logo mark once certification approval is granted. This mark will be consistent across every approved bat design so umpires will easily identify approved bats.
Extremely fast shipping times! Good prices, but shipping a bit higher than some other sites. Will look to them again for bats in the future.

If I can give more stars in the review I would. I've been there a few times now. And I also placed online orders. They have great knowledge about what each kid should or shouldn't use. I have a daughter in softball and my son in baseball. Even though I'm over an hour away. I will not go anywhere else for my kids equipment. Thanks for doing a great job. And for being fun and friendly.

Only site that had the bat my kiddo wanted (Victus crayon 31" red) We got our order delivered just a few days after placing it just in time for a big game where half the kids on the team got to use it. Won the game and the power of the crayon prevailed. Thanks!
At Closeout Bats we stock what we sell! We have a huge warehouse and are NOT drop shipping bats like many web sites. We update inventory and availability on the Web site several times a day as inventory positions change shipping hundreds and hundeds of bats. We also sell bats out of our physical store, so sometimes things sell out before we can get them off the Web site.
Limited quantities available. Prices subject to change without notice. Like we say, if it's on the site, it's in the warehouse -- just SOMETIMES it might have some other player's name on it! If you snooze, you lose, so ORDER YOURS NOW!
