Swing and a miss. “STRIKE THREE! YER OUT!”

“Hey Mike. -Good game. You just ran into the best. See you online tomorrow night for the

next game in our series.”

“Yeah, I’ll get you tomorrow. Pedro can’t pitch every night. See you then.”

Thank you for purchasing Sega Sports World Series Baseball 2K2.

You have in your hands the most detailed and realistic baseball simulation ever created.

The power of the Sega Dreamcast brings Major League Baseball to life as never before and

challenges all of your previous conceptions about sports video games. From the

draft to the World Series, from custom playoffs to real baseball schedules,

from player creation to dynasty domination in franchise mode, it’s all in WSB 2K2.

Oh, and have we mentioned online play yet? World Series Baseball 2K2 has full

online support- making for some intense Dreamcast-to-

Dreamcast action. Go head-to-head with someone down the

street or someone across the country.

This isn’t last year’s baseball game. This is WSB 2K2. Do you

have what it takes to tame the game? Can you go online and

slug it out with real, live opponents? The only way to tell is to

get out of the clubhouse and on to the field.

INTRODUCTION

It’s the top of the ninth. Runner on second. The Red Sox

lead 1 – 0 and the Boston crowd is on their feet.

You’ve got Pedro on the mound. He’s pitched another gem for

you. Other than the pesky runner on second, –Mike, the guy from

Oklahoma that you’ve been playing online – hasn’t touched your pitching.

The closer is warm in the bullpen. To switch or not to switch?

The ump calls time and you see a message scroll across the bottom of

the screen.

“Hold on a minute. Not going to let the shortstop hit right here. I’m bringing in my big bop -

per. You gonna leave Pedro in there, or is the closer comin’ in?”

The question remains: do I pull my ace and give the ball to the closer, or do I let Pedro fin -

ish the game?

“Mike, you haven’t hit Pedro all night. What makes you think this stiff is going to be any

better. Heh, heh, heh.”

Time in.

The catcher gives the signal and here comes the pitch. The batter swings and fouls it

straight back.

“Hey there Pedro. I got your timing down now. This game isn’t over yet.”

0 – 1. Time to get a little fancy. The catcher gives the signal and here’s the pitch.

The ump cries out. “STRIKE TWO!”

“WHAT!?!$%!,” types a frustrated Mike. “That was outside!”

0 – 2. The runner dances off second. With two outs he’ll be going on contact.

The catcher gives the signal one more time. Pedro nods and the batter’s fin -

gers tighten around his bat. Here comes the pitch, a fastball up high.

STARTING THE GAME

NOTE: Sega Sports™ World Series Baseball 2K2 is a one- to two-player game. Before

turning the Dreamcast Power ON, connect the controller(s) or other peripheral equipment

into the control ports of the Dreamcast. To return to the title screen at any point during

gameplay, simultaneously press and hold the A, B, X, Y, and START buttons. This will

cause the Dreamcast to soft-reset the software and display the title screen.

World Series Baseball 2K2 is designed with analog

functionality in mind. The SEGA Dreamcast analog

controls provide a fuller range of motion and add to

the overall depth of the game. By going to the Game

Options -> Controller menu however, you can change

the control scheme to use the D-Pad instead. Either

way is acceptable, it’s a matter of

personal preference.

To highlight and select specific menu items, press the

Analog Stick in the direction of the menu item until it

highlights. If you have questions when viewing most

menus and screens, press the Y button for

Command help.

Batter up! When you step up the plate, your first job is to get on base. Use the analog stick

to change the plane of your swing. If the pitch is up in the zone and to the outer half of the

plate, press the stick to up and away from the hitter when you swing. This will optimize your

chances to hit the ball.

MANAGER’STIP:GETTING HELP

If at any time you need help navigating through the menus,

press Y and a help screen will help you find the way.

BATTERUP!

MANAGER’STIP:THE STRIKE ZONE

We'll show you the strike zone (it's defined by the on-screen

box). Know the zone so you don't swing at any bad pitches -

a walk is as good as a hit!

Now that you have a runner on base, you have to move

him along. Move the analog stick in the direction of the

base you want the runner to go to and then press the X

button. If you've gone too far and you want to retreat to

the base you came from, move the analog stick in the

direction of the base you want the runner to return to and

then press the B button.

This method for controlling the base runners works when you want to steal as well. If you

press the X button (with the analog stick pointing to the appropriate base), the runner will

take off and attempt to steal the base.

If you want the base runner to hold at the base he’s going to, press the Y button and hold

the analog stick in the direction of

the base he’s running to. This will

cause the runner to stop advancing

once he reaches the next base.

The game will select the correct player when the batter puts the ball in play. Use the analog

stick to run towards the ball. With pop ups and fly balls, a red icon will appear on the

screen to let you know where to position your player to make the catch.

BASERUNNING

MANAGER’STIP:ADVANCED OFFENSE

A skill you will need to learn is how to hit the

ball to where you want. With a runner on first

or second, you'll want to hit the ball behind the

runner (to right field) to give your runner the

best shot of making it to third or even all the

way home.

Another good tip is to learn how to hit fly balls -

use the analog stick to place the hitting icon

below the ball as it comes in. This way you can

drive balls to the outfield with runners in scoring

position - they'll now be able to tag up and

advance if you can drive the ball deep enough.

PLAYING IN THE FIELD

MANAGER’STIP:CONTROL

Watch for the blue icon beneath a player's feet. That will tell

you whom you are controlling. The other players will be moving

to back up the play or cover a base, so don't get confused. To

change the player you're controlling, press the B button.

It’s all about the pitching. Do you have the stuff to strike

out your opponent?

Each pitcher in World Series Baseball 2K2 has a different

array of pitches that appear in the overlay at the bottom

of the screen. Move the analog stick in the direction of

the pitch you want to throw and press the A Button. Then

use the analog stick to adjust your pitcher’s aim and

press the A Button again to throw the pitch. The aiming

icon will stay active after you press the A Button, so if you’re playing against

another human opponent, make sure you move it around to cause confusion.

You can press the A Button several times as you move the analog stick – the

last one pressed before the pitcher releases the ball determines where the

pitch will end up.

It's not enough to just have a quality pitching staff. To be

successful in World Series Baseball 2K2, you'll have to call

upon your managerial know-how to use the correct pitcher

in the correct game situation. Here's a quick outline of the

different types of pitchers you'll have available in your rota-

tion and bullpen:

SP =Starting Pitcher - The guy you'll trot out to start the game. A solid starting

pitcher should be counted on to give you a strong seven innings or so.

LR =Long Reliever - If your starting pitcher gets roughed up in the early going, turn

to your long reliever early on to give you anywhere from two to five innings of work.

MR =Middle Reliever - These guys usually see action in the sixth or seventh innings,

or oftentimes are used to pitch against single batters in lefty-lefty or righty-

righty situations.

SU =Set-Up Man - Use these pitchers for an inning or two in the seventh and eighth

innings of close games to bridge the gap between the starter

and the closer.

CL =Closer - If you're nursing a one to three-run lead, bring

in this fireballer to work the ninth inning and (hopefully)

earn the save.

PITCHING MANAGING YOUR PITCHING STAFF

MANAGER’STIP:PICK-OFF MOVES

OK, a runner got on. You don't want him to steal, so you

have to keep him honest. After selecting the pitch you want

to throw, the pitcher will come to the set position. Hold the

Analog Stick in the direction of the desired base and press

the B Button to make the pick-off throw. For a pitch-out,

press the Y Button.

OK, you know about pitching and defense - what's next?

Well, sometimes having your players in the right spot at

the right time can make all the difference. Press the Right

Trigger to bring up a little menu at the top of the screen.

Press the Right Trigger again to change the positioning of

your fielders.

Infield-Normal The standard defensive arrangement.

Infield-In Use this defensive alignment when there is a runner on

third you want to keep from scoring.

Infield-Double Play Shades the shortstop and the second baseman over so

they can turn a faster double play.

Infield Back The infield plays deep - good for defending against the big,

slow sluggers.

Guard Lines Guard the left and right field lines to prevent extra-base

hits in the late innings.

Guard Bunt Position your infielders to defend against the sacrifice.

Select the Custom tab on the main menu to make adjustments to the way World Series

Baseball 2K2 is played. Make changes to the sound and difficulty level. This is where you

will be able to load your saved seasons, playoffs and franchises, and created players.

GAME MODES

From the Main Menu, you’ve got a ton of choices. Here is a quick description of all of the

different game modes that WSB 2K2 has to offer.

EXHIBITION

Choose any two teams in the league and take it out to the field.

QUICK START

Quick Start gets you onto the field right away. The first time you go in to Quick Start, it will

pick the two teams in last year’s Word Series. Subsequent times, it will pick the last two

teams that played each other.

SEASON

Are you ready to simulate the season? Here, you and up to 29 other users can create your

own season. Select your season’s length, use standard rosters or conduct a fantasy draft,

set the game’s difficulty and head on out to the field. The season is a long and grueling one,

but with skill and a little luck, you can make it to the promised land in October. See page 19

for

detailed description of the menus you will see in

season mode.

REPLAY CONTROLS

MANAGER’STIP:THE SCHEDULE

If you are playing a league with several human users,

selecting a Flexible Schedule might be best. A rigid

schedule means that you have to play the games in

order, a flexible schedule allows you to play them out

of order.

PLAYOFFS

No time for a full season? Do you just want to experience the thrill of the postseason?

Playoffs can give you all of that. Select the number of teams and the playoff format. Can

you guide your team to the World Series?

HOME RUN DERBY

Wanna go yard? Then head on over to the Home Run Derby on the main menu. Set up a

competition between 1-8 players from any major league roster, at any stadium, and a

user-selectable number of pitches. After the first round, the top two bombers advance to

a playoff round. The winner will be the one who can go deep the most.

Number of Players 1 – 8

Stadium Choose Any

Number of Pitches 5 / 10 / 20

FRANCHISE

So you want to be a GM? Do you have

the skills to build baseball’s next dynasty? Franchise Mode is your chance to do it.

So you feel ready for a season. After setting the options, enter your name and pick your

team. Use the Sega Keyboard (sold separately) or the analog stick to navigate the on-

screen display for entering your name.

If you selected a Fantasy Draft, this is your chance to play General Manager. All of the play-

ers are free agents and it’s your duty to fill out your roster. You can opt out of the draft at

any point and have the CPU finish for you.

Once the season is set up, you will be presented with the following menu:

Management This is where you get to set up your team. Pick your lineups,

adjust the pitching rotation, shuttle players back and forth from

the minor leagues, check for news, trade players, sign free

agents, check on injuries and save your progress.

Schedule From this menu option you will get a chance to see who is coming

up on the schedule. If you want the CPU to simulate all the games

up until a certain date, use the analog stick to highlight a specific

date and press the A Button.

Statistics World Series Baseball 2K2 will break down all of the numbers for

you – team stats, team standings,

league leaders, player stats, and

even all-star votes.

News Find out about trades, injuries, and

free agent acquisitions by the other

teams in the league from the News

screen.

Options This does the same thing as the

custom tab from the main menu,

allowing you to change the number

of innings, and the audio presenta-

tion of the game.
