Character Background

Alvin Lockheart is a character in Success Mode 2007. He is the player's baseball rival, although he will not acknowledge it at first. Depending on the player's choices, can become the Tulip's captain or antagonist playing for the Champion Rings.

Alvin mistakenly joins the Tulips thinking they are an elite team (the Tulip's LADIES' softball team was the good one). He impresses everyone from the start. Even though Alvin is listed only as a pitcher, he is also effective as a position player.

Alvin previously played with Patrick of The World Gatherings, possibly in high school; Patrick was an expert at catching Alvin's special mirage knuckler-pitch, but after getting beaten when Patrick missed a start, Alvin struck out on his own to prove that he could succeed without Patrick calling the game.

Possible Storylines

Joining the Champion Rings

Alvin will leave the Tulips if you become captain in year 2. He develops a shoulder injury that goes unnoticed (except by Peter). The next time you meet him will be in the Championship game of Year 3, during which he will be a member of the Champion Rings. If you bat against him in the game then you will see that his Mirage Knuckler has evolved into the Star Shaker.

Staying With Tulips

Alvin usually stays on the Tulips if you don't become captain in year 2. It is possible for him to still leave the team, if [need circumstances filled in]

If Toby is captain in year 2, you can choose in year 3 to be the captain yourself, or to give it to Alvin or Marvin instead. When Alvin is captain you get a points boost to pitching practice.

The Mirage Knuckler

The Mirage Knuckler is an original pitch based on the knuckleball.

A knuckleball developed years ago by Alvin, with Patrick's help. Faster, and has more motion, than a standard knuckleball. Alvin didn't use it for years because most catchers couldn't catch it. - Green Text
