Description

In Moneyball, Michael Lewis discusses the most exciting part of baseball -- the front office! (Closely followed by hot dogs, box seats, bench-clearing fights, and when the game is canceled.) When Billy Beane broke with a century of traditional scouting methods, he turned one of the poorest franchises in baseball into a record-breaking team within two years. Plus Dave makes fun of baseball, and also Kellen makes fun of baseball.
