MVP Baseball 2003 is a sports video game developed by EA Sports for the Xbox, serving as a successor to the Triple Play series. The game features a redesigned gameplay engine, offering modes such as Franchise and an innovative Homerun Showdown. Players can enjoy unique batting and pitching animations, along with interactive crowd elements that enhance the immersive baseball experience.
MVP is EA Sports' replacement for the aging Triple Play series. Re-written from the ground up, this rookie title includes a Homerun Showdown (not a derby - something a little different) and Franchise mode as well as the usual exhibition games. Many custom batting and pitching animations as well as vendors hawking hot-dogs and hecklers shouting player and team specific heckles - all in an effort to submerse you in the game.
