Amazon.com Product Description
Triple Play Baseball is about as close as one could get to a hypothetical Extreme Baseball League (call it XBL). The game's Big League Challenge pits you against baseball's biggest sluggers in a home run contest, and Extreme mode will provide targets to challenge your timing and accuracy. Baseball purists, however, shouldn't be alarmed--Triple Play Baseball is still a very traditional game. It includes updated rosters, stats, and stadiums (including new additions Miller Park in Milwaukee and Pittsburgh's PNC Park). Toronto Blue Jays manager Buck Martinez and Jim Hughson provide the game's color commentary and play-by-play, respectively.

 what's new? March 26, 2002
This series has the best batter-pitcher interface, and graphics, but that's about all. The defense and base-running are terrible! It's pretty easy to use a conservative swing and go the other way, but the way the ball reacts after being hit is not good... I've been playing baseball games since the original RBI... I've owned and played at least 25 different bsaeball games, [but] this series is terrible!
 Triple Play 2001 - Warmed Over March 20, 2002

"Triple Play Baseball" is a virtual facsimile of "Triple Play 2001". The only difference (and I do emphasize, the ONLY difference) is the updated rosters, stadiums and team uniforms. Fortunately, unlike the Playstation 2 version, Jim Hughson is still the play by play man, and Buck Martinez is still the color commentator (I love those two guys!), but no new dialogue. Beats Sony's "MLB" series to pieces, but shame on EA Sports for their lazy approach to this game.
Horrible August 5, 2001
Based solely on this product, I will never purchase or rent another game made by EA again. While the graphics are adequate, the game play (the most important thing) is like stepping back in time to the early 1980's. More often than not, the game will freeze in extra innings. Also in "Pro" season and playoff mode, the game has a function that will automatically allow the team you are playing to catch up with you. So if you have a five-run lead, the next five guys you pitch to, no matter who they are, will hit solo home runs. Kind of defeats the purpose of competition, doesn't it? Don't bother with this piece of garbage, and that goes for any other EA product as well.
READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY IT! July 1, 2001

This is the worst game I have ever purchased. Money down the drain. The game constantly freezes, and if you talk to EA sports they tell you to turn your playstation on it's side. Needless to say, it still freezes. It would be a decent game if it didn't freeze up, but there are better baseball games out there. Don't throw away your money like I did.
