Sony has debuted the first trailer for the movie based on the baseball book by Michael Lewis, Moneyball [MONYB]. Brad Pitt [BPITT] stars as Billy Beane, the General Manager of the Oakland Athletics, who came up with a new way to evaluate baseball player with the help of stat head Paul DePodesta or Peter Brand as played by Jonah Hill [JHILL]. In order to compete with baaseball teams with much bigger payrolls, they used sabermetrics to assembled a team of cheap players who take walks and get on base, apparently in a very darkly lit Oakland Stadium.
