The moment you were going to point out a character for being OP, I instantly knew it was going to be fucking Pablo! I haven't played Backyard Baseball ever since I was little, but you never forget about Pablo, and his stats bar. Honestly, I really liked him because he was so good, and he was Hispanic like me. I never got into sports through Backyard Baseball though. I'm still not a fan of sports, but Backyard Baseball will always have a place in my heart.

I gasped SO loud when I saw this video in my sub feed. Would love to know why I adored Backyard Baseball specifically as a child when I never was a sporty kid. But watching this reminded me how much Humungous Entertainment charm was in it despite the lack of plot and character interaction. I do remember the most fun for me being the picking of the players, and I was always furious I could never get both twins on my team. What I wouldn't give to play it again as a 30 year old to see if I could actually win a single game 😂 Amazing video as always!!!!

I looked like such a silly goober, and it's forever in my kindergarten yearbook lol. Anyway, totally with Billiam on this, these games ruled, and now I want to try and find a working version of the MLS Backyard Soccer game cuz I played that one the most.

Kinda funny hearing that Shawn Green was the most forgettable MLB player in backyard baseball for you, as almost everyone jokes about Bobby Higginson or Matty Cordova. Green was one of the faces of the Dodgers during that span of time with his most notable achievement being a 4-home run game that only 18 people have ever done. Also, he was the only Jewish ballplayer in backyard baseball 2001 which likely played a role.

There are several methods to getting massive points in the earlier Backyard Baseball games. First of all, as tempting as it is to select Pablo first on your roster, you’re wasting his potential. You should always pick him fourth. That way, you have three players on base (if they can manage it) when he unleashes his grand slam! Another tempting strategy is to spam the Power pitch or use the special ones. You should stick to curve balls that you aim at the lowest corners of the screen depending on the direction of the pitch (you aim inside, not around the CPU kids, if that makes sense). If your pitcher is good, these balls land in the strike zone and the CPU kids usually try to hit them. When your pitcher tires, they sometimes land as balls, but if you’re playing the game right, you may already have extra juice on hand (people like to spam this as soon as they earn it, but that’s a bad idea). Another strategy is to have your players either hit bunts or grounders (or the special bunts and grounders when earned), unless you unlocked the Aluminum Power (definitely use that on players with average skill levels because players like Pablo don’t need it and terrible players may waste it altogether). Almost exclusively using weaker batting styles seems like a losing strategy but it’s not. The CPU kids take longer to catch these balls and stealing bases in between these plays is a breeze. My twin sister has a game that she finished where her team scored either just under or just over 200 points. It took her weeks to finish the game because it kept crashing during some plays. I currently have a game I started a few years ago (and more or less gave up on) that’s at around 172 points. It crashes after every play now, so I think I’m virtually locked from completion… Glad to see you post a video about one of the greatest game franchises of all time! My sister and I got our original copy of Backyard Baseball in a cereal promotion! We found MLB version many years later at a thrift store! Many, many, many hours spent playing these classics! But Backyard Soccer and Backyard Basketball are great too! I know people think Pablo is the god of all sports, but I beg to differ! My twin has a Backyard Soccer team where she exclusively lets Ricky Johnson score goals! The other players can assist him, but if anyone accidentally scores, she restarts from the last save point! I think she had an 18-0 game at one point using just Ricky! He’s the quiet, unassuming, shy black boy with a football head! You don’t think to pick him in any of your games, but he excels at soccer! On a final note, Lani Minella (the voice actress for Rouge the Bat before 4Kids replaced her) plays a character or two. In Backyard Soccer, she voices Sally Dobbs, and, if I’m not mistaken, Sunny Day!

I remember this game got a surprising amount of play on me and my friends computers, even though we mostly played games geared older audiences like Diablo. It had a fun gameplay for the time with an art style that popped out. Great vid.

Backyard Sports games were always surprisingly competent arcade style games. Backyard Football was in heavy rotation on my GBA… when I was in high school 😂

I like the ongoing storyline of your dad trying to get you to love baseball and you not getting it or enjoying it

I knew not one, but MULTIPLE kids like Pablo in my playground and backyard games days. It was never the jocks who were the ones smoking all of us, mostly because he was the one playing his best game while jocks got focused down into oblivion every time they tried to make a play. Me? I was the kid who smacked a kickball into his own face three times in one game. I mostly just read comic books in the stands. but hey, I was always included :)

It amazes me that even today in 2023 there's youtubers and streamers still playing the backyard sports games, even multiplayer online is somewhat active. Back in the day, BS games were our maden games, nowdays its a nostalgic feeling turned into "f*ck em up Pablo!" like the common parent watching their kids's game lmao

Backyard Baseball was my jam in the early 2000's. I kinda thought that I had imagined the whole series for a while.

I was 15 when I got the game. Free gift at a promo event for the 1999 All Star Game. I tell ya, I still played that game into college. I still remember Pablo, and the Del Vecchios, and the blonde twins in the tennis skirts, and wasn't there a flower child named "Annie Frazier"?
