Select Team Edit to customize the roster, the starting lineup and the
pitching staff.
TEAM EDIT
Select the team you wish to edit. Use the Control
Stick/+ Control Pad to select the team. You can
select all 30 Major League teams and two All-Star
teams.
TEAM
You can assign which pitchers will be the Starters,
Relievers, and Closers. Select a pitcher and press
the A Button to highlight his name. Select a second
pitcher and press the A Button to switch places
between the two.
PITCHING STAFF
There are 25 players (starting lineup and bench
players) on your active roster, and 5 non-roster
players. To make changes to your active roster
select a player and press the A Button to highlight
his name. Select a second player, and press the A
Button to switch places between the two.
ROSTER CHANGE
You can customize the starting lineups and the
fielding positions for games against right-handed
or left-handed pitchers, as well as games that are
played with or without the DH.
Use the L/R Button to change the category. When
selecting a batting order, select a player and press
the A Button to highlight his name. Select a second
player and press the A Button to switch the batting
order between the two (if both are already in the
Starting Lineup) or make substitutions. When
changing fielding positions, select two players in
the lineup (except the Starting Pitcher) to switch
the fielding positions between the two.
Note: “-STARTER-” indicates that the Starting Pitcher
you select before the game will bat at that spot in
the batting order. While you can change his place
in the batting order, “-STARTER-” cannot be
replaced by a reserve player.
STARTING LINEUP
When All-Star Edit is selected, two lists of players will
be displayed: the left list are the members of either
the AL or NL All-Star teams, and the right list are the
players on teams in the same league. Use the
Control Stick/+ Control Pad 46 to switch between
the AL All-Stars and NL All-Stars, and C Stick 46 to
select the teams in the same league.
Note:
The team on the right will automatically switch
to the team of the corresponding league whenever
the All-Star team is switched between AL and NL.
You can choose your own All-Star team, edit teams, and trade players
between teams.
ALL-STAR EDIT
Use the C Stick 82 to select the players you would
like to have on the All-Star team. Use the Control
Stick/+ Control Pad 82 to select the player you
wish to have replaced, and press the A Button to
make the replacement.
Continue the process until you have a team you
feel satisfied with. Press the B Button to end All-Star
Edit. You will be asked to save the team to the
Memory Card.
Trading is done exactly the same way you edit the
All-Star Team, except that the players selected will
be exchanged between two teams. Use the
Control Stick/+ Control Pad to select the team and
the player on the left list, and C Stick for the team
and the player on the right list. Press the A Button
to complete the trade.
TRADE
When you are done, press the B Button to conclude
trading. You will be asked to save the team to the
Memory Card.
