Base Running Speed Up

If you tap alternating L and R while running bases, you will increase all baserunners speed.


Lock-On

Enabling Lock-On provides some batting assistance on getting the barrel of the bat to the ball. There are 3 levels of Lock-On, the higher the number, the more assistance provided.


Analog / Digital controls

This setting pertains to your pitching and batting cursor.

  • Analog mode will act like a rubber-band that will try to pull your cursor to the center, so you must hold your joystick in the position you want to pitch/bat.
  • Digital mode will maintain your cursor where you place it rather than pulling it back to center, so you do not have to hold the joystick in position.


Description

Condition is a status that indicates how on top of their game a player is in a certain game[1]. Condition affects players in the following ways:

  • Batting: Hitting cursor size
  • Pitching: Top speed as well as amount of movement on pitches
  • Abilities: Best condition will negate the player's negative abilities, Worst condition will negate positive ones.

A player's Consistency ability will determine the magnitude of these effects.

The MLB PP 2007 game manual used the term form[2], but its effects remain the same.

Conditions

Best Good Normal Bad Worst
This removes all Red (Negative) abilities General stat increase Neutral base abilities/stats General stat decrease This removes most Blue (Positive) abilities
  • These conditions vary from game to game, and tend to go up and down and back up.
  • A player with any condition higher than Normal will have faster breaks on their pitches, larger hitting zones with their bats, and so on. Conversely, having a condition lower than Normal will negatively affect performance.

Season Mode

In Season Mode there are two additional conditions:

  • Injured - Green face icon. For injured players.
  • Resting - Gray icon. For pitchers recovering from long outings.

Available only in 2007

In MLB PP 2007, the following conditions are available in Exhibition Mode with the Spirit System enabled:

  • On his game - Dancing pink face icon. A better condition than Best
  • Off his game - Slumping purple face icon. An even worse condition than Worst

Success Mode

In Success Mode games, a player's motivation heading into a game will determine a player's condition for that game.

My Life Mode

In My Life mode, condition behaves similarly to a biorhythm for the user's player. When you report for your first spring training, you will be in normal condition and gradually progress to good, and then best condition. A small arrow denotes whether your condition is improving or worsening, and it will always begin declining once you reach Best. On the flipside, it will always begin to improve once you reach Worst condition.
