The Top 10 Virtual Baseball Players of All-Time

[JerseySuave4]

The character based on Jay Buhner in Griffey baseball was a beast as well hitting home runs almost every at bat. But the last 2k baseball game i bought, i think it was MLB 2k7, A-Rod was an absolute beast. I was at 70 home runs before even hitting the All Star break. But that is prob more attributed to the fact that it was so easy to hit home runs in that game.

pablo sanchez of backyard baseball will forever be king.

I would nominate Brodie from H (Houston?) in Bases Loaded 3. He is without a doubt the fastest video game baseball player of all time. If he made contact, he was scoring.

Haha, I love that someone mentioned Super Baseball 2020. I loved that game.

I would have to vote for Juan Pierre of mlb 2k5.


I would just bunt the ball everytime and make it to first. then i would steal second and 3rd.

He batted .750 and stole over 300 bases in my season.

The thing about Paste was he was always on roids rage. If you hit him in the game he would fight. Therefore he got kick out of the game. I don't think I have not had as much fun as I had with that game.

I say Paste is the greatest power hitter in any video baseball game ever. I think he even had 63 HR on his stats.

Great stuff Christian. My buddies and I spent many, many hours on these games.

My all-time best virtual player has to be Mark Grace on Triple Play 99. There was something about lefthanders in that game with high contact ratings that wouuld just go deep all the time. I remember Tony Gwynn being good too, but Grace was the BOMB.

Andy Van Slyke in Tony La Russa Baseball should at least get an honorable mention.

I won over 150 games online in the Show using the Mariners and only the Mariners. Eventhough I only averaged a little over 3.5 runs per game, like the real Mariners, who I think actually averaged less then that. You know why? Because of King Felix. I had an ERA of around 1.40, and a WHIP of 1.01 with him on the mound, playing only players with winning records. He diserves recognition, he has a 5 pitch arsenal and all 5 pitches are quality pitches. 98 MPH fastball followed by a 85 MPH change, or slider/curveball. Most of the games I play online in the show are 2-1, 3-2, 1-0 games. No if the M's were to actually get some offense.....

The player you're referring to is none other then James Hutt, I do believe.

Awesome! I love reading these articles about 8/16 bit games.

[Redemption]

I remember Danny Tartabull on I believe a Sega Game Gear game was a beast

[porkchop]

I had better luck with Fendy than I did with Paste... still a great article though!
