Product Description
As we prepare to enter into the next millenium, last year's best playing baseball game on the PlayStation has moved into the 21st century. If you love baseball, come join Vin Scully along with Dave Campbell from the booth as well as the rest of your favorite players from the field in MLB 2000 from 989 Sports.

The first new feature you will see in MLB 2000 you won't actually "see" at all. You will hear it! You will hear the voices of Hall of Fame Broadcaster Vin Scully, joined this year in the booth by ESPN baseball analyst Dave Campbell. Together they call the game in true to life TV style presentation. In-depth player descriptions, stats and opinions recreate the ultimate MLB experience.

This year's new player models are some of the best ever seen in a PlayStation baseball game. MLB 2000 will display your favorite Major League players in unbelievable detail from the wrinkles and folds in their uniforms right down to their actual faces. For even more realism watch as players step to the plate in their own individual batting stances and make defensive plays just like they would between the lines. Players make diving and sliding catches, throw from their knees and blast the catcher at the plate.

The great depth of MLB 2000 has been expanded even further. This year if you don't make the big club out of Spring Training you can stay in extended Spring Training in hopes of getting hot enough to be called up. With the help of former MLB Scouts, this year 989 Sports will give you the chance to work as the GM and build your team into the next baseball dynasty. Gamers can create, draft, trade, call up, waive, release, and sign players as free agents. Keep checking the waiver wire and pay attention, as the CPU will generate trades between other clubs as the season progresses. Make sure not to miss the trade deadline. Utilize Scouting Reports and Player Ratings from real former Major League scouts, to judge the talent of your Minor Leaguers. Turn on the new Manager Mode option and utilize the Scouting reports to set-up hitters and position your defensive. Watch as your decisions play out while you call the shots. MLB 2000 has entered the 21st century, don't get left behind.
