Press when you are running the bases after hitting a homerun. Your player will blow kisses to the crowd. If you continue pressing , your player will jump on home plate.
For some easy points, start a two player game, with only one person. Throw a perfect game, striking out every batter. Save the game in the bottom of the ninth inning with two strikes and two outs. Finish the game, collect your points, and save the options. Reload the game and repeat to collect the points again.
Easy points can also be gained by playing against the CPU, changing to the opposing team that and making them play poorly, allowing your original team to score a lot of runs. In the last inning, switch back to your original team and claim the points that the CPU gained.
If you are down in the count or need a quick ball, pretend to lay down a bunt. Pull back while the pitcher is in his motion and this should result in a ball being thrown. Note: This only works up to two times in an at bat.
If you have a pitcher or created player that throws a hard 4 seam fastball, always place the pitching cursor below where you want the pitch to go. The pitch will automatically rise after the pitcher releases it. However, with other pitches (curveball, slider, changeup, etc.) the ball will end up where you put the pitching cursor.
Wait until your pitcher has low energy then pause the game. If your pitcher is still on the mound, go to "Save Game and Quit", then save the game. Restart the system, and when you go to the main menu, load the game. When you finish loading, it should automatically take you back to the game, and it should show your pitcher on the mound with the full green energy bar.
When your pitcher is in the stretch, select a pitch, and before you press , hold the to perform a side step.
When the ball is released, hold and the base that you would like to throw the ball to. The catcher will then snap up and throw the ball to the selected base. Note: This only works when you are pitching.
When at the main menu in franchise mode, go to "GM Office", then "Roster Management", then "Disabled List". Look through your players to see which ones are tired (except pitchers). If a starting player is tired, you should bench and rest him for one game.
To change jerseys in franchise mode, go to quick play, and highlight "Change Uniform" on the team's options. Go back, exit quick play, load the franchise, and when you get to the play game screen on options, your pointer will be on the blacked out uniform part. Press and you can change uniforms. Once you change lineups or pitchers, this option is no longer available; it only works for that one game.
Select the "Extras" option at the main menu, then choose "Player Management". On that screen is a category called "Player Editor". It allows you to improve players. In season mode, go to "GM", then choose "Player Management", then "Player Editor". Note: Making a player all A+ may result in the game freezing in later innings.
Create as many players as desired for the positions you want by using the "Create-A-Player" option. Collect the players you have made from the free agent pool and sign them to your team. Once you have all of your created players that you want, go to "Roster Management", then to "Long-Term Contracts". Offer each player you created a long-term contract at the same, or even for a lower price than they want. Since the players are not proven in the major leagues, they will sign for basically nothing (just for the chance to play). You can now edit their stats in "Player Editor". Make each player the best that they can be (everything A+), and you will have the best team for the lowest price. Use this in franchise or expansion modes.
Go to the player editor and make all his stats to D- so that no teams would want to claim him off waivers. When you want to promote a player back to the Major Leagues, change his ratings back to his default settings.
To duplicate players, start a franchise or continue an existing one. Make sure the "GM Control" option is set to all teams. Go to the GM Office, then to "Trading Block". Select any player who is not from your team and put them on the trading block. Then, select "Get Offers" and make sure the other player involved is also not from your team. When you select the other player, the screen will change to the regular trading screen. The person on the trading block will be in your team's section. Go to "Submit Trade". When the message stating that the trade was accepted appears, you should have the player that was not on the block. The player on the block should be on his current team and the other team involved in the trade.
To easily win, start a game, setting the skill level on anything except "Manage Only". Pause game play go to "Controller Select". Switch the controller to the team that you want to lose. Then, go into "Team Management" at the pause screen. Change the pitcher and the fielders to the wrong positions. You can also put pitchers in as pinch hitters. Then, return to "Controller Select" and change back to your original team. The CPU may switch the players around, but you can put the wrong ones in again. You will not get any card points if you play the entire game with the losing team. Note: there is a slight chance of your game freezing if player positions are swapped too often.
