Welcome to Reading the Game - the podcast where baseball fans discuss the baseball books they love!

In this first episode we were joined by Matt Smith (@MattBaseballGB) and Russell Eassom (@REassom) to discuss Moneyball by Michael Lewis.

We talked about how Billy Beane's A's impacted the game, and how influential the ideas described in the book have been, and the extent to which the landscape of baseball in 2019 differs as a result of the book. We looked at some criticisms of the book and also found a bit of time to answer some listener questions.
