I still recommend that people play Interplay Sports Baseball 2000. Aside from the fact that it was two-button swinging (I still don't appreciate that games have a power/contact toggle instead of just one), their zone hitting was, and still is, superior to most games' zone hitting to date. Yes, ESPN MLB was good... but for a PSX game, this game had quite the number of goodies, from zone hitting to authentic batting stances, home run collision detection, balks, fake throws, pitch track, attribute versus left-handed/right-handed pitching, and even when you're the Mariners during season mode, they move from The Kingdome to Safeco Field in the beginning of July.

I still own it and play it on my PS3 every so often. It had bland (actually, laughable) presentation, but wow was it my favorite PSX baseball game by a landslide.
