Extra out on a play:
When a ball is caught, throw to second base. Move theman on second down while pressing Triangle. Keep doingthis until he throws the ball in the outfield. Then, highlightyour center fielder and make him dive for the ball. If he catchesthe ball, it will be counted as an out.
Hint: Charge the catcher:
Repeatedly tap X when running home and yourrunner will ram the catcher. At times, this may cause the catcherto drop the ball. Note: Auto Sliding must be enabled.
Hint: Faster base running:
Press R1 with a good baserunner on base andhe will run his percentile.
Hint: Easy hits:
Press Down while using the power swing to geta single or double about 90% of the time.
Put on the power swing and hold Up while hitting the ball.You will most likely either hit a homer or a line drive off thewall.
Hint: Easy strike:
When pitching to the CPU, pause game play when theball gets about halfway to home plate. When the game is resumed,the batter will always swing too late to hit the ball.
Throw a changeup to the outside or inside of the strike zone.The batter usually will not swing. If he swings, he will almostalways miss. If he hits it, he will usually pop it up for an easyout.
Hint: Easy out:
This trick is similar to the "Extra out on play"trick, but easier. When one of the CPU players gets on base, getthe ball and run to any base. When you are on that base, run tothe middle of the out field. Do not run into the wall, or therunner will run. Instead, when you get to the middle there willbe another man covering that base. Make sure, by throwing theball to that base. When the man covering it gets the ball, theman in the outfield will run back to his base. When he gets there,run about three feet, then run back. While running, get as closeas you can, then throw the ball to that base. If done correctly,the ball will be overthrown as an error. The runner on base willrun. Get the ball and throw to the base that he is running to.
Hint: Longer hits:
Hold Up/Left or Up/Right (depending onwhether the batter bats left or right) while one of your betterhitters is swinging at the plate.
Hint: Good pitches:
Throw a sinker high and the CPU batter will usuallymiss or not swing.
