Besides playing single matches, Home Run Pinball or a full season (here the player also takes over some responsibilities of the general manager like trading), there is also the Become A Legend career mode which is similar to the Rookie Challenge of the predecessor. Here the player takes the role of an injured athlete who works up his way back to the MLB. During matches, the player needs to meet requirements (e.g. winning a certain mini game or statistical things like throwing out a certain number of athletes) in order to succeed. Between matches there are mini games to play which improve the athlete's statistics (speed, contact, glove and power).
