Success Mode
From MLB Power Pros Wiki
If you are looking for a walk-through, look here.
Success Mode is one of the unique features of MLB Power Pros. It allows you to create a character from scratch, placing him into college Powerful University and he joins the school's baseball team known as The Tulips. The objective of success mode is to win a minor-league contract with your favorite major-league team. The player goes through three years of baseball, school, work, and romance in order to earn his way into the big leagues. You only have 1 save location for success mode, and it is erased whenever a new character is made.

When you get there the doctor's tell you he died months ago. Later, you'll see the boy and call him a ghost. He'll tell you he was in CCC Hospital.
