Hints
Easy hit
Select Pete Wheeler to be on your team. When he is
at the plate, have him bunt. If it is a fair ball, he will get
on base about 99% of the time. You can then easily steal bases
with him.
If the baseball is pitched within the yellow square, place the
bat (by guiding it with the mouse) in between the red lines that
are on the baseball.
Easy homerun
Hit a ball on a fly out of view in left or right field
in fair territory in any stadium, and it will be counted as a
homerun.
At Steele Stadium, hit the ball on the shack in center field and
it will be counted as a homerun.
In any mode except spectator, play in Cement Gardens. Hit a grounder
into the left field alley. If it goes out of view, it will be
counted as a homerun.
Use Pablo Sanchez as a batter. If the pitch is down the middle,
switch to batting open. If you hit with power, it will be a homerun
most of the time.
Easy ground rule double
Hit a ball on bounce out of view in left or right field
in fair territory in any stadium, and it will be counted as a
ground rule double.
Easy strike outs
Before you throw a pitch, click on it and watch the
pitcher. If the pitcher nods his head yes, throw the pitch and
it should be a strike. If the pitcher shakes his head no, do not
throw that ball and find a different pitch. Continue to throw
pitches that the pitcher nods "yes" to until the batter
is struck out. Note: This trick works most, but not all, of the
time.
In the middle of any game, your pitcher will naturally start to
lose juice. However, you do not have to change pitchers. Try to
throw strikes as much as possible until you have absolutely no
juice remaining. You will not be able to see any red in the straw.
Obviously the pitch target will now be very large. Choose any
pitch. Aim the pitch directly for the kid's head. The ball should
be on his head or very close to it. Click to throw the pitch,
and even if the shaded region is not in the strike zone, the ball
will still be a strike.
Barry Bonds walks out of park
Go to a single mode game. Play at Steele Stadium (the
park with the shed) and have Barry Bonds on your team. Put Barry
Bonds in left field. Then, intentionally allow the batter on the
other team to hit and throw it to Barry Bonds. Make Barry Bonds
go up to the fence, then click out of the park repeatedly. Also
try the same thing where the fence and the bushes meet. If done
correctly, Barry Bonds should walk out of the park.
Power-up Maria Luna
Create the Mighty Monsters team and make them all pink.
Put Maria Luna on your team and she will have 10-10-9-10 stats.
Hint Good days and bad days
When you look at pictures of players in the background,
it will be different colors. These colors are blue, orange, and
green. When the background of a player is blue, that player is
going to have a bad day. When the background of a player is orange,
that player is going to have a great day. When a player's background
is green, that player is going to have an average day.
