Baseball game offers thrills on Playstation
By Michael Sudhalter
Video game critic
Triple Play 2001 on the Sony Playstation system is a game with outstanding graphics and an endless array of game features.
Video game enthusiasts have the options of playing a single game, a season of 15, 30, 60, or 162 games, or jumping right into the playoff chase.
TP 2001 is definitely a game that accommodates both the intense baseball fan and the passive afficionado as well.
While this feature might be the most exciting part for kids and those not familiar with baseball, TP 2001 offers team management for those baseball nuts out there.
These baseball enthusiasts can make trades, create new players, and sign new players. They also have the option of reordering their rosters and pitching rotations.
The game, which includes all of the MLB players from 2000 beginning rosters, features an Extreme home run derby contest. In this part of TP 2001, five stadiums (including the glitter Las Vegas one), a construction site, a 13th Century Castle, and a miniaturized indoor living room are all fully equipped with targets.
Players also have the option of putting today's stars, such as Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire, against Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron and many others.
One feature that makes the game appealing is a home run derby, where players get the choice of one, three, five or nine inning games.
Any way you look at it, *Triple Play 2001* is a home run for all types of Playstation fans.

In a traditional home run derby setting, TP 2001 has all the authentic features of a Major League ballpark and Cashman Field, Las Vegas, the original site of the home run derby contest.
