Just read the sign behind Pratt for the first time when talking to "David Justice." "Performance DRIES up," as the last line. Due to the DEHYDRATING of the muscle by 3%. This movie is so insanely intelligent and incredibly written. I "catch" something new each time:)
The movie begins with a quote from Mickey Mantle saying it's amazing how little one knows about the game you have been playing all your life. Then this scene makes so much sense about how it should be played, going back to basics and what should be done in order to win. I love this movie !!!
Many sports have multiple angles to them. Being talented or more technical; bigger, faster, stronger, doesn't always guarantee greater success. Your intelligence & approach to any sport are also part of how good a player you are. People always want to focus on talent, ability & potential, and very rarely look at output.
Very rarely look at output? Looking at output is a major component of the analysis of any process. Including a baseball game. Or season. Or career. There wouldn't be so many resources devoted to sports statistics if a lot of people didn't want to "look at output"
It is so hard to stick with something that does not work immediately. To have patience and hone a system based on faith and conviction is something to be applauded.
I love how, throughout this montage, the ideas are obviously coming from Pete. But Billy is mostly the one communicating. It’s not just about the right method or strategy, those become worthless without effective communication to the players, which is Billy’s gift.
@@GrantCrabe numbers can be a good average, but they can also miss a lot. booth can be useful on the field. when u are in the heat of the moment averages can be good lead too. experience is another thing too
I think about this movie every time people complain about ohtani stroking out it going into a slump. It's a numbers game. Nobody ever promised you a home run every at bat. Look at his numbers. I'm the long run he is a winner.
by far the best made sports movie of all time. I never knew anything about baseball. I still dont, but I love every second of this movie. great actors, great story
Not shown here, but the greatest scene in the movie is where the scouts are gathered and they’re trying to piece together a team and the oldest guy in the room finally tells everyone that they can give suggestions, but it eventually ends up on Beans shoulders. I think he got what Billy was trying to do
I'm not sure he did, but more importantly, he understood that Billy was in charge, and that Billy had some new fresh ideas to break the A's through the inherently inherently biased system in the majors, and that the rest of the old-timers needed to lose their sense of entitlement and overconfidence
A *VERY* huge subtlety that goes unnoticed by a lot of people is how Billy respected David enough, that he took heed to the opinion Pete most likely shared with Billy, that David complained about paying for soda in the clubhouse, and then he fleeced the GM of the Tigers to pay for stocking his soda machine so they won't have to pay👍👍
"It's a process, it's a process, it's a process" is a line I still quote daily when I need to convince an employee to stick with a procedure that doesn't immediately give results.
The craziest thing about Billy Bean is HE'S STILL DOING IT. The A's payroll today, in an era where the cheapest teams are paying their players 150 million, is about 45 million, and he still manages to keep them relevant and in contention the majority of the seasons they play. Imagine if he worked for an owner who actually cared about the team. Imagine if Cohen had bought the A's. If Bean had happened to develop that loyalty to any other franchise we'd talk about him like Brady and Bellichick. There is absolutely no better GM in the game at maximizing value.
5:45 Went from 6 games below .500 to 7 games above .500 in only four weeks by going 18-5. To all the average fans who aren't aware, this is incredibly hard to do in the big leagues.
Man, I really like that 3:00 leadership pep talk. 'Cause I've been on both sides of that conversation. Sometimes you've got a shithead boss, but if you're gonna play for a team, you've gotta motivate those coming up. And sometimes I've been that higher up who has to put confidence and motivation into the reluctant new front line supervisor. And both dudes did a good job of communicating those feels.
Seen this movie 6 times and am kind of a baseball historian nerd. What the movie doesn't tell you, with Zito, Mulder and Hudson on the mound as starters, you didn't need to score a ton of runs.
@Moroklumpen the movie surmises that the 100 game win season was only due to the off season moves and not the very good players already on the team. That is why I have an issue with the movie not at least mentioning the existing talent.
@@vdoggydogg3922not mentioned in the movie: Tejada (mvp), Chavez (34 hr 109rbi), Dye( 24hr, 86rbi in 130 games) Zito (cy-young) and Hudson who’s numbers were comparable to Zito. Pretty solid core that any team would sign for.
I, a baseball ignoramus, love this movie. Friend of mine years ago gave me a book called Fever Pitch, about soccer. He HATES soccer (all sports actually he’s a mathematician) but similarly loved that book. Most memorable chapter is about a guy called Gus Caesar and the way the tale is told translates to all sportsmen. I understand that a lot of Moneyball isn’t factually accurate and I am so so glad that the truth wasn’t allowed to interfere with with a great movie.
Buy in is one of the most overlooked aspect of any team’s success. The lack of attention given to training the psychological aspects of sports is astonishing.
I love how Chris Pratt's character puts his glove on in the locker room. Low key telegraphing how nervous he is. NOTE: for those of you that have never played baseball, you don't need to actually put your glove on until it's time to field a ball...on the field.
Like this movie but people seem to forget or not a single mentioned that this team is still loaded with talent. Starting rotation of Hudson, Zito & Mulder. Position players of Tejada, Chavez & Dye.
I love this movie but the pitch must have been difficult lol. "Yeah so it's a movie about baseball, which a lot of people consider a boring game, but it' mostly focused on spreadsheets and the back offices. Oh and we want everything to be low light, soft colors, no music but lots of office sounds and chatter. Best scene is a bunch of old men arguing in a whitewashed room"
Not really. The pitch was (probably) “We got Brad Pitt starring and Aaron Sorkin writing…….An American underdog story about the National Pastime.” You’re framing it all wrong and trying to break the cinematographer’s and director’s balls…….
to me baseball was just always winning. I was on a good team my whole life, from little league to highschool. Won every little league championship, minor league we always won the conference and went to state at the very least. My dad was always the coach and from little league to summer ball besides highschool (they wanted him to but he worked too much) would lead us to victory. I miss those days so much, almost feels like a dream or another life its been so long.
I love baseball movies , Field of Dreams, League of Their Own, Sandlot , how can you not love baseball . I thank God I have had two great experiences in life ,playing baseball , and racing dirt bikes . Lots of others also but those two define my loves.
I hate baseball, I feel it's up there with bowling and golf as far as interest goes. Hell... I like Curling more than Baseball. But the logic and reasoning shown in this movie, dramatized or not, makes me love this story.
One of the inconsistencies of this movie is that there was no actual hostility between Billy Beane and David Justice. Beane and Justice were united and Justice already knew how to be a leader and didn’t need to be told.
The pitch clock helped save baseball. Turned a 4 hour game into 2.5. Bunch of superstitious prima donnas scratching their junk and adjusting their gloves slowing thingssssss dowwwwwnnnnnnnnnnn. 🥱😴😴😴
Stealing second is the most ridiculous thing. I played baseball for years and years and despite of the fact that I run really fast and refused to steal bases. Even though my coach wanted me to do it, I always refused, because it is too much risk.
The fact that Peter Brandt was ostracized in Cleveland for voicing his observations says how people generally react to the idea of sociotal or systemic change... Threatened! You don't ostracize someone for being wrong. If they're wrong, you just correct them and explain to them why or how they're wrong. You don't ostracize someone unless you're threatened by how right they are.
The way he destroys Justice's ego then builds him back up again is masterful.
Like it's a movie haha

Dude when Billy says “I hate losing. I hate losing more than I want to win.” That sums me up in anything competitive. I felt that.
Hear that, it’s the feeling of a win being expected, but a loss is due to a personal mistake and infuriating.
But in the postseason, you have to want to win more than being afraid of losing.

4:33 “there’s no clock on this thing”
Billy, I’ve got some bad news 😬
Don't get me started about the double switch either.
Billy was talking to the players concerning batting. The clock is on the pitcher, not the batter so Billy is still correct.
"It's a process, it's a process, it's a process" is a line I still quote daily when I need to convince an employee to stick with a procedure that doesn't immediately give results.

Idk they are a bottom 5 team now and fans are just waiting for them to get relocated, so probably not the best example
So relevant they’re moving to Vegas……..

Anyone who has ever played baseball knows what hatterberg means when he says his greatest fear is the ball getting hit at him
Especially since, when you're playing defense, you're no longer in a batting helmet.
Anyone who ever succeeded PRAYED the ball would be hit at them.
It's probably the best modern baseball movie made.
"But you pay me to steal."
"No, I pay you to get on first, not thrown out at second."
That's actually a really good point.
Seen this movie 6 times and am kind of a baseball historian nerd. What the movie doesn't tell you, with Zito, Mulder and Hudson on the mound as starters, you didn't need to score a ton of runs.
Tell that to my tigers. Pitching was phenomenal to start the year but they couldn’t hit worth a plum nickel
Also that A’s SS Miguel Tejada was the AL MVP that season, hitting .308 with 34 HR and 131 RBIs 😂
this movie never talked about the MVP on 3rd base and the excellent starting pitching
Because that's not what it's about. The As had some huge holes and not a lot to patch them with; how they did that is the interesting story.

Yo ive never seen this movie. I absolutely have to now. Just the few scenes i was suggested have blown me away
Did you watch it?
I absolutely despise baseball. But F*** I love this movie.
If only they had allstars Miguel Tejada, Eric Chavez, Barry Zito, Marc Mulder, and Tim Hudson to help them......o wait they did
Nah it was the 1st baseman who did it all. If those guys were important they would have been mentioned in the movie.
@@Paul-vf2wlhey, Tim Hudson got a brief mention in a clubhouse scene
