Create a player with the name Keegn Patersn, Jacob Patersn, or Ziggy Patersn,the bat will always break whenever he makes contact with the ball.
When you are playing against the CPU and it has players on base, wait until the next batter is up. If the batter hits a ball to the outfield and it is not a line drive, get off the player that is suppose to catch the ball and wait until the very last moment to catch the ball. Then, take control of the outfielder to make the out. The CPU's baserunners will already be running to the next base because they thought the ball would not have been caught. After you make the catch, you can throw out the baserunners who forgot to tag up. This is an easy way to make double and even triple plays.
If you have runners on first and third base, and a right handed batter at the plate, steal with the runner on first and press the Analog-stick to opposite field + Down.
When controlling a right handed batter, point the Left Analog-stick to opposite field (right field). Swing for an increased chance of getting a homerun over the right field fence.
If you have a big hitter such as Manny or Vlad, hold the Left Analog-stick diagonally towards the Green Monster. This will make almost every inside pitch or icon in the hot spot go over the wall for a homerun.
Easy homeruns with pitchers
Add a pitcher to your team that has a low stamina, but has a screwball or knuckleball. Pinch hit for your starter with this pitcher and he should have a high power rating.
If you have a man on first and third base, have the player on first steal. Once you see the catcher's arm go up, send your player on third base home.
Once you get two strikes on a batter, always throw a low inside curveball or slider. You will almost always get a strikeout. Additionally, get two strikes on a batter. This is easiest done with a curveball. Then, throw a cutter high and away (outside the zone). The batter will swing and miss for strike three. This only works with right-handed pitchers against right-handed batters. If the batter does not swing, use a low and inside curveball to finish him off.
At the main menu, go to "Rosters" to create a player. Enter the player's name as Erik Kiss. He will hit a homerun every time the ball is hit.

Use Barry Zito or create a player that has a good slider and curveball. Throw the slider two times to the opposite side that the pitcher throws. For example, Zito is left-handed, so throw it to the right side (inside of a left-handed batter). This will cause the batter to think it is either to the inside or to the outside. The pitch must be at the edge of the strike zone. After that, throw a curveball in the upper inside or outside corner. He should strike out, pop out, or ground out.
In season mode, the CPU will accept all your trades (at least in rookie mode). You can trade players that you do not use a lot for other players on other teams that are very good. For example it is possible to trade Marcus Thames to the Diamondbacks for Randy Johnson.
