All-Star Baseball 2003 Cheats for Playstation 2

Press L1 at the controller selection screen to activate cheats that have been bought.

Press L1, R1, Triangle at the team selection screen in exhibition mode to get a football field as a stadium.

Hit a homerun and on the way to third (after replay), press L1 or R1. Your player will taunt the other team's players.

When you round third base and headed for home after a homerun, press L3 + R3 to taunt the other team.

Select Exhibition mode and repeatedly press L2 + R2

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
