In the Rookie Challenge, you have the opportunity of stealing ten players. Take
outfielders first because if somebody gets a hold of a hanging curve you want speed;
glove; and if someone is in scoring position, a good arm. These are two groups of
outfielders that have those attributes. These outfielders should improve your win
percentage and increase your number of shutouts and no hitters for experienced
players.
When you and your opponent fill up your point bar, wait until your opponent uses Power
Blast. Then, strike the batter out with Big Heat and you will get 100,000 points for a Big
Strike Out. You must do this a few times.
When you can get bat graphics, select the flame bat. Then, try to get your power
ratings to the maximum to automatically hit home runs.
While at bat, aim the batter in his batting direction and slightly up, then press B to
hit a home run. For example, if the batter is right-handed, aim him to the right and up
and press B. Usually this will result in a home run.
