If you even remotely appreciate the game of baseball, you'll love this book. Okay, so I listened to it, and it's fabulous. That was good, but the best part of the movie is that it stirred me to want to read the book. What made the experience of listening to Moneyball the most enjoyable? Please, Audible - pull the masters on this one, put an intern in a studio for nine hours or so, and clean it up - you'd look so much less lazy and foolish. There are at least five (I stopped counting) places where the narration repeats two sentences. For Audible, usually a benchmark of releasing a top drawer products, to have let this one out it its condition is.regrettable. I've always been an admirer of Scott Brick, a consummate professional in the narrator bullpen. The rethinking of the analysis of baseball statistics - some of which have been untouched since 1859 - make the nerds with the athletic ability of a convenience store, such as myself, to be intellectually fulfilled. But for those of us that love the game, it is a delight. Excellent Book, Outstanding Narration, Sloppy EditĪ well written and gripping story,even for those not especially interested in baseball.
