The second game in Acclaim's Nintendo 64 baseball series offers a number of new features designed to improve upon 1998's All-Star Baseball 99. Returning to the game are 30 Major League Baseball teams, authentic stadiums and 700 fully-licensed players with ratings based on the 1998 season. As in 1998's game, a cursor is used to make contact with the ball, while pitching involves manipulating a target around the strike zone after first selecting one of four pitches.
