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.
Easy 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.
Special hit:
————
Another way to get a special hit is to use a regular bat, either power, line-drive,
grounder, or bunt, and get either a single, double, triple, or home run safely.
A sound will confirm correct code entry.
Sliding backwards:
——————
When a player is about to slide into a base during a steal, click in the opposite
direction which the player is sliding to. If done correctly, you will find the
player sliding backwards.
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.
Easy strike outs II:
——————–
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.
