The PlayStation 2 version received "generally favorable reviews", while the PlayStation version received "mixed" reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. GamePro said of the PlayStation 2 version, "MVP Baseball 2004 remains the top overall pick this season, but MLB 2005 is an excellent alternative that will have strong appeal to diehard baseball fans. And it's great to see 989 Sports getting back in the game."
