Answered my own Q...I used Hide My Root from the Play Store to hide my SU binary and that let me in the game with GG open.
I also found a great, easy point hack method similar to the one detailed above. I got this from an iPhone thread on the xsellize forum but it seems to work on Android as well. Here's the URL for the thread followed by the exact method I used:

1. Start GG
2. If, like me, you have issues running 9 innings 2013 while rooted, use Hide My Root or some other app to trick the game into thinking your not rooted
3. Open 9 Innings 2013
4. Start the Home Run Derby mini game
5. Before taking any pitches, open GG and search for 1917593088...you should get three results
6. Go back to the Derby and get a hit
7. Pause the Derby and open GG...you should see only one of the three listed values has changed
8. Edit the value on the item that changed to 999993088
9. Save that value for later use and go back to the game...then just take 10 straight pitches and there will be 9,999,999 pts waiting for you!
Like I said, very similar, but this method has given me 100% success. It appears that 1917593088 is a place holder or something for your initial Derby score. There are probably other values that will give you max points but again, 999993088 has worked for me.
Also please note that after the Derby ends the game summary will only show that you earned a few thousand points...you didn't mess up if you see that. Once you get to the menu you should have the full bank of points.
