-'''Power''' is, quite simply, how far a player can hit the ball.  Each batter in [[RBI]] has a power rating stored in the game's [[ROM]].  The higher the rating is, the farther the player can hit the ball.  [[Rafael Santana]], with 708, has the worst power rating for position players, despite being a starter.  The highest power rating belongs to [[Andre Dawson]] with a 954.  All pitchers have a 640 power rating.  Theoretically, the power rating may go anywhere from 0 to 65,535.

-By watching the RAM of the game via an [[emulator]], it has been discovered that all pinch hitters get a boost of 64 power points (40 hex) during their first AB. That is a big boost and explains why some pinch hitters ([[Joel Youngblood]] comes to mind) completely suck after their first at-bat...
-To put that number in perspective, 64 power points is the difference between [[Bob Boone]] and [[Jim Rice]]. Or [[Doug DeCinces]] and [[Reggie Jackson]]. Or [[Keith Hernandez]] and [[Darryl Strawberry]].
