Math and baseball, who knew they went together like burgers and fries? Probably all those guys with arsenals of complex spreadsheets who end up being the only ones who actually win big in sports betting, but for the rest of us dumb rubes I imagine it came as a surprise. Fortunately, you’re not alone, and if you wish to see how widespread your ignorance truly was, just watch the crow-chowing skeptics of Moneyball, a 2011 sports drama directed by Bennett Miller and based on the book of the same name by Michael Lewis. This statistics-heavy record of the Oakland A’s legendary 2002 season married America’s alleged favorite pastime with nobody’s favorite school subject to general acclaim, awards, and adoring audiences. But will it be a home run when subjected to the clinical cinematic calculus of Magellans at the Movies, or will it strike out in disgrace?
