Cheat: Break Bats
Name your player Ziggy Patersn, Jacob Patersn, or Keegn Patersn, and when they come to bat it will break when they hit the ball.

Cheat: View
Hold L2 + R2 for more than 3 seconds. Press LEFT to enable the view and RIGHT to turn it off.

Cheat to Win
One way to cheat the system, especially in the playoffs, is to save your game, then configure your lineup and sim the results. If you lose, dont save. Reset the game and reconfigure the lineup based on their previous performance against that same pitcher. When you win, save the game again. Repeat to never experience defeat. Its the fastest (cheapest) way to win a World Series.

Hint: Sucker The Padres
When playing in the franchise mode, the best way to improve your team is to trade for Oliver Perez of the San Diego Padres. You can trade a much less valuble player to get Perez, and he will be well worth it. Every franchise Ive done Ive got him for nothin and hes won multiple Cy Young Awards, never having an ERA over 3, plus hes in his early 20s. If youre gonna make any trades make it this one.


Hint: Big Batter
To hit a homerun every hit, make a player named Erik Kiss. You can put him at any position and change anything but his name. Put him on your team and he will hit a homerun almost every at bat.
