Easy points
You can gain "points" for certain feats performed during a game. An easy way to get a lot of points is to throw a perfect game. This is worth 100 points. Switch controls every time the CPU is up at bat and intentionally strike out. This will get you points for 27 strikeouts, and for a perfect game. Repeat as many times as needed.

To get more points in franchise mode to sign your free agents, during the off season either create a player and pick him up as a free agent or sign free agents and release them at the end of the season.

Use two controllers and keep throwing fast balls on both sides until a late inning. You can go into extra innings for more points in strikeouts. Then, hit a ground ball on the team you want to win and make the other team just hold it. Run around the bases with the other controller. This will count as an error and give the other pitcher a no-hitter.

Easy runs
Get Barry Bonds to bat in the third spot in the order and play against the Cubs. Take control of the Cubs and start intentionally walking everyone until Barry Bonds is up for the second time. Rotate the hitting icon so it will hit a home run. Make contact and you will hit a grand slam. Repeat this as many times as needed. Note: Do not check the box score after 100 runs or the game will freeze.

Easy steals
Hold [Triangle] and button for the base your runner currently occupies immediately before the pitcher is in his windup. As your runner goes, if you can see him in the background running to second, he will be safe. If the catcher receives the ball and you cannot see your man in the background, he will almost always be thrown out.

Easy wins
Switch controllers to the opposing team and change all the players to pitchers. The CPU will be much worse on defense. If you can pitch well, you will also get a lot of strikeouts.

Easy wins in a season
Save the game then go to schedule. Simulate the game. If you did not win, return to the main menu and load the season. Repeat this until you win the game.

Control homerun replay
After hitting a homerun, a replay of it will be displayed. When you see your batter heading home from third base, press various buttons to see different angles.

Better hitting
Immediately after the pitcher releases the ball, press [Start]. You will see where the ball is going and if it will be a strike or ball. Resume the game and move your batting cursor over it to get a nice powerful swing. This will help you improve your hitting. Note: You do not need to press [Start] directly after he lets go of the ball -- it just gives you more time to move your cursor after the game is resumed.

Use the pause technique before batting. When you see where the ball is going, try your best to get the ball as close to the point of the contact triangle (the part closest to the batter, not the thick part of the triangle). you will usually get homeruns or at least doubles.

Wait until the pitcher's arm is in motion and is coming forward, then swing. If it looks like a bad pitch do not swing. This strategy woks most of the time, and works well with players such as Giambi, Bonds, or A-Rod.

Better pitching
The best pitchers have a pitch called a "Slurve" (for example, Mark Burhele of the Chicago White Sox). Also try the "Dominate Curve" with Pedro.

Restore pitcher's energy
In season, franchise or expansion mod, go to the DL, and put any pitcher on the15 day DL. Then immediately take him back into your lineup. He will have recovered all his energy.

Better franchise or expansion mode teams
Use trades to get rid of your older less talented players for slightly better players. Even if the CPU rejects your trade, keep trying repeatedly and it is usually eventually accepted. However, make the trade reasonable, such as B- for a B or B+. If the player you really want just does not seem to want to join your team, try trading for another player who is slightly better, then return to that player you want and try again. Do this every season to keep good young players.

To get whatever players you want, go to the trade screen. Take a bad player in your lineup with about a "C" rating and trade him for someone with a "C+". Then, trade the "C+" person for a "B" and so on. All your players will eventually have "A" rankings.

Resign players for same points but longer deals
Start in the franchise value menu and use [R1] to release one or two players who you do not want back. This will allow you to build up some extra points. Then, release the player you want to resign for more years. Go to the free agents screen and resign him for 50 points and any number of years. Go back to franchise value and release him again. When you go to resign that player again, the amount of points will usually be the same amount as before you released him the first time but he will demand the same number of years that you signed him for after the first time you released him.

Easy homeruns
While at bat, after pitcher selects the pitch press [L3] + [R3] and swing with [X] at the appropriate time to have a better chance of getting a homerun.

Easy cards
Use the following trick to unlock all the cards in one or two games. Once you unlock the Cooperstown Legends and the Pixels, play as the Legends. You will find that within the fifth or sixth inning, every hit equals ten points and possibly more. Constantly hit homeruns and strike out the batters and you should have forty to fifty packs to open after the game. This is the easiest way to complete your card collection and unlock the cheats.

Start an exhibition game. If you are starting from a clean slate (i.e. no cards), use the Cooperstown Legends and the Baltimore Orioles as the two teams. Have the Orioles as the home team to give the Legends a DH, and their pitching an extra half-inning to get more strikeouts. Set the controller icon to the Legends, and the difficulty to Veteran. Set your weather, game options, and lineup to however you like. Who you start (Ryan, Gibson, or Seaver) does not matter. Next, press [Square] to go to the "Control Setup" screen . Set all of the players to CPU control for offense and defense. Press [X] to exit, then press [X] again to start. You can now sit back and watch the points pile up. The only thing that would require your attention is in the event of an injury. Any of the Legends' starters can go the distance, netting you 10 easy points for a complete game. The offense usually has a field day and will give you lots of points for cards. Once you get the Glen Cove Islanders and the Fresno Pixels, the fun can really begin. Pick those two as your teams, and set up an exhibition game with the same set-up as above, using Glen Cove as your team. Sit back, and watch your boys pile on the offense. Be prepared for anywhere between 20 to 70 runs per game from your offense, with a couple of cycles and loads of home runs. Your pitching staff can give you a complete game shutout or (if your defense plays a bit off) a 1-run game, with no more than 5 hits allowed and over 10 strikeouts. You can get anywhere between 15 to 45 card packs per game.

Choose the Yankees at the Phillies. Choose to play as the Phillies under any difficulty setting. When the first batter is up, pause game play and select "Change Lineup". Then, select "Defensive Replacement". Choose the catcher, then start using pitchers. Repeat this step until you have run out of pitchers for the catchers. Then, choose an outfielder to be the catcher. Then, go to "Position Swap", and switch positions with the first baseman and catcher. Go to "Defensive Replacement" again and choose any other player to be the first basemen. Switch to the Yankees for an easy win for cards.

This trick requires two controllers. Each controller will control one team. Stay pitching in the middle of the strike zone, and batting for homeruns. If you do not hit a homerun, control the fielders and do not catch the ball in the air and throw it to a base. Then, with the batting controller, keep pressing [L1] to score a run. The game will never end. When the score is about 50 for each team, finish the game and you will have about 100 packs to open.

To get all the cheats and cards in one to two games, do the following trick. In the exhibition mode, pick the Atlanta Braves and the Baltimore Orioles as your two teams. Have the Orioles as the home team and the Braves as the away team. Choose the Braves as your team and when up to bat, drag bunt with Rafael Furcal. If he gets to first base with nobody else on, always steal second base. Hit with power with Chipper Jones, Gary Sheffield, Andru Jones and Vinny Castilla. Hit regularly with everybody else. When you get three outs, switch to the Orioles and pop-up every pitch. This will get you no hitter points 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th inning, and for the ninth inning, pop-up with the first two batters and get the last player out yourself. This will get you points for a no hitter and points for a perfect game. If done correctly, and you average about five runs an inning, you should have at the very least forty packs to open, if not more.

Thom Brennaman's stories
Start a game and allow the controller to remain idel. After a few minutes after they have announced the lineups and the starting pitcher, Thom Brennaman will start telling in-depth stories about baseball.

Get Pedro Martinez on your pitching staff
To get Pedro Martinez on your team, create at least an A- Designated Hitter. Trade him for Randy Johnson of the Diamondbacks, then trade Johnson for Martinez. The Red Sox will refuse the trade at first, but retry it once or twice and they will agree to it.

Powerful team
Create as many powerful designated hitters as you can. Note: There is a limited amount. After this is done, take them out of the free agents brackets. Trade them for as many All-Star players as possible to create a dominating team.
