I have no interest in baseball, but I loved this movie
Comment from : peperoncino

While Jeremy Giambi was a solid bat for a handful of years, he was never one of the best hitters in the league
Comment from : Extinguisher10

Chad Bradford was at no point a closer

The Jeremy Giambi timeline is off

I believe Billy Beane is the only name you pronounced correctly that entire video😢
Comment from : Keith Stebelton

The only moneyball that works is spending money on the best playersthat's money ball

What a trash movie this waslike get real the team sucks and has suckedmoneyball has never worked
Comment from : LITMOVIESCENES

People I guess forget the whole point of the movie was that it doesn’t work And we know it doesn’t work because the A’s have been doing it for 20 years and haven’t really made any noise
Comment from : JB Beats

I was at the 20th game
Comment from : jmsbeaber

They never did mention what a great starting rotation they A's had that yearMoulderZitoand Hudsonand Billy Koch as a closer
Comment from : Mike Phillips

Statistics can be objective, but also misleading For example, a batter can make solid contact but hit the ball right at someone and make an out, while another batter can hit a cue shot for a hit Also, players on very good teams and very bad teams many times face pitchers on the bottom of the rotation who are just mopping up, and thus can pad their stats Also, in clutch situations you will have batters unwilling to swing at a borderline pitch and either take a called strike three or walk to leave it to the next batter

My problem with the movie is how they tried to use sabermetrics to push the idea that all teams need to be built this way and get rid of the past way of doing things when in reality the old way finds the superstars and this way helps fill in the gaps of a team for cheap
Comment from : Matt Cook

GREAT Movie!
Comment from : David Weston

Well done - thanks Moneyball is one of favorite movies, and I'd heard that Art Howe was really a good guy within the baseball community so it's too bad he wasn't shown accuratelybut that's Hollywood - famous for making sh*t up
Comment from : Mike Johnson

Why use a guy that speaks with a heavy accent? I can’t tell anything he/she says
Comment from : Dan Steinshouer

Not sure why chavez, mulder, zito, hudson and tejeda were so upset They were not the point of the movie They were home grown talent, much like the other teams have done, but said teams could afford the price tag of the marquee players unlike the A's So they went with bradford, scott and david cuz they were the ones who fit the point of the movie They need to get over themselves
Comment from : Ken Adams

Best line in the movie Have you seen his girlfriend? She is ugly What does that have to do with anything It means he lacks confidence LOL Its not word for word, but still Love that line
Comment from : Ken Adams

The movie definitely downplays Billy’s anger issues Brad Pitt made his character seem like a really chilll and mellow guy
Comment from : FMD Inc

Not a big baseball guy but love this movie Probably my favorite baseball movie along with Sandlot ;)
Comment from : Christopher R

Wtf happened to your accent? Haha
Comment from : propakindustries22

Comment from : kendall Evans

Hey "limie" what do you know about American Baseball!!
Comment from : Richard Patrick

It is abhorrently false that teams did not utilize moneyball/sabremetrics before Billy Beane The A's 2002 season is remarkable because of how good the team was It's like making a movie about any spectacular underdog teambrbrI love this movie and Baseball, but it makes a lot of randoms who have seen the movie sound like idiots when they claim no one was using sabremetrics which had existed for for decades and was being used by big teams, it just didnt always look like that since the big teams could afford to buy out the players found by smaller teams
Comment from : Otterpawps

Great movie, even better book!
Comment from : Cracker Jack

ngl I still see Chris Pratt now whenever I see Hatty highlights 🤣
Comment from : Phil Leotardo

John Henery didn't get Billy but he did get Theo Epstein and used sabermetrics plus deep pockets to win his WS
Comment from : Caballo Tustenagge

bsigh/b Moneyball is complete fiction & this video is too Bradford, Justice, Giambi & Hatteberg were nothing more than average players Bradford was never a closer (11 career saves) Billy Koch saved 44 games, won 11 & led the league in games pitched & finished that year Giambi was so awful he got traded for Jon Mabry, who was far more important to that team That was Justice’s last season because he couldn’t run & Hatteberg was just a guy w/ far below average production at the position Moneyball convinced a ton of parents their kids no longer needed to be able to hit because guys who walked a lot carried the A’s to another disappointing postseason appearance The truth is they had the best SP trio in Hudson, Mulder & Zito, who combined for 57 wins & 675 IP They also had true Star offensive players in Chavez, Dye, Tejada & Durham and the only mention of any of them is Beane yelling at Durham, who stole 26 bases that year, to stop running The reality is the A’s had a ton of talent, but a poor bullpen and Beane’s unwillingness to fix that problem consistently prevented his teams from finding the success their star power deserved FYI, Giambi is still responsible for one of the dumbest plays in baseball history, costing the A’s a series, because he didn’t slide Overall, Moneyball is a stupid movie made for the participation trophy crowd
Comment from : clint

I can barely understand the narrator Had to stop watching
Comment from : Driver96

Interesting to see and hear this video narrated by a Scot (?)
Comment from : Fast Eddie

Having three top end starters in your rotation is a massive reason for their success and a glaring absence from the movie
Comment from : spiderman4x

One of my favorite movies
Comment from : Adrian Sierra

endlessly rewatchable filmlove it
Comment from : John Ruggieri

Every story that is based on a true story is still fiction
Comment from : Smoke Trails

This narrator and/or writer does not watch baseball, 10:42 called it a point 😑😑😑
Comment from : david perez

Along with A League of Their Own, Moneyball is one of my favorite baseball movies!!
Comment from : Rudie Obias

Comment from : BD Boricua

Unless you're in the theatre expecting a documentary, try to remember that IT'S AN FFFING MOVIE That's my review
Comment from : Bob Swarbrick

Is that Bobby Kotick in the movie? The hell is that about?

All time classic sports movie
Comment from : Matt Blom

Anytime I wear my A’s jersey people either say “Moneyball” or call me Scott Hatteberg 😅
Comment from : Gnarly B Gaming

its not Miguel teJAYda it's Miguel tayHAda I hope you'll agree that the reality is much cooler in this instance as well
Comment from : Michael

I did some carpentry work at Bill James house a year or two ago He is as fun to talk to as a board or a rock Kind of a weird feller Moneyball is a boring bore of a movie Glad to hear they had to spice it up with inaccuracies, didn't work BORING
Comment from : Gypsy Dildo punks

Great movie…but this bummed me out
Comment from : AnonymousAccount

It's strange hearing an English voice narrate a JoBlo video, even stranger that it's a video about baseball 😂
Comment from : Moe Foley

Hey tbh I would turn down 12 million as well to go work for the Boston Red Sox! LMMFAO! #YANKZALLDAYBAYBAY!
Comment from : That Horror Guy

That's hilarious! The coach gets portrayed by Phillip Seymour Hoffman and he 'spent seven years in an organization and this is the way your boss feels about you' LMMFAO! An overweight heroin junkie! Was the coach a junkie!? I know Mark McGwire was an A for some time right? Wasn't Barry Bonds as well? No, Giambi was, duh Him and Mark were so tight the only thing you could fit between them was a needle! LMMFAO 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Comment from : That Horror Guy

I love the Dallas Cowboys! They are my team! Go Brad Pitt and that fat guy from Super Bad!!! #YEHHEES!
Comment from : That Horror Guy

Comment from : J Mieses

Great movie, one of my favs
Comment from : James Davies

Just finished watching it for the first time, thanks for this vid
Comment from : VEN IMMORTAL

Who made the British guy do the voiceover for this one?
Comment from : Dan OMalley

It's worth remembering that "Moneyball" was not a documentary chronicling that fateful season - it was a feature film And given its extraordinarily effective cinematic achievements, it probably ranks as one of the most historically accurate portrayals ever made by any film of comparable quality
Comment from : Tim Sullivan

First good baseball movie in decadesbrGreat rewatchable quality
Comment from : Ryan Anderson

Jo-Blo gone Geordie?brNot what I expected
Comment from : kildog

Comment from : heathmcrigsby

Comment from : GR1M RACER

So it’s a motion picture…not a documentary…thanks! 😉
Comment from : engelmann82

How did you get David Beckham as a narrator?
Comment from : engelmann82

One day you’ll finally get around to doing a WTF really happened in Independence Day… (just a bunch of bbq footage and fireworks at Roland emmerich’s house)
Comment from : Brownjellyfish

'Moneyball' is easily one of the best motion pictures made in the last 25 years A good story told well A rare commodity of late
Comment from : Hugh-John Fleming

Yes, he gave us the WTF back I was wondering WTF happened to this channels rebrand
Comment from : _Scabs

My biggest problem with the book and movie is how it completely ignores the fact that Oakland had the three top starters in the AL (Mark Mulder, Barry Zito and Tim Hudson), as well as two MVP caliber hitters in their lineup (Miguel Tejada and Eric Chavez), most of which were not brought in by Billy Beane himself They put way too much attention on the guys that were more so role players than true stars
