The Department of Economics and Pi Lambda Sigma presents "Moneyball" on Thursday, February 23, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. in Breidenbaugh 201 (Joseph Theater).

"Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane (Brad Pitt) challenges the system and defies conventional wisdom when he is forced to rebuild his small-market team on a limited budget.  Despite opposition from the old guard, the media, fans and their own field manager (Philip Seymour Hoffman), Beane - with the help of a young, number-crunching, Yale-educated economist (Jonah Hill) - develops a roster of misfits...and along the way, forever changes the way the game is played."
