Listen "HE004: Moneyball"
Episode Synopsis
...Oh, say does that star spangled banner yet wave o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave play ball?
In this episode Lizzy and Nate touch base with Moneyball, the 2003 book by Michael Lewis and the 2011 hit movie made from it. We take a swing at the non-fiction account of the Oakland A's baseball team, their manager, Billy Beane, and his use of sabermetrics to try to level the playing field with other, richer, teams. Be forewarned, we do some singing in this episode. The distress this will surely cause is hopefully mitigated by the honeyed timbres of our friends Rich and Z, but we doubt it.
