Billy Beane因独特的管理和超凡的勇气而出名
在竞争激烈的美国职业棒球联盟，比利的奥克兰运动家棒球队无论在人员和物资配备以及资金实力都仅仅是下三流之列。然而凭借比利比恩的逆向思维的经营方式，在好友的帮助下，他物色召集了一批表面看起来都有缺点，性格偏激但骨子里却都拥有在棒球运动某方面的超强能力的队员。当然他的这一行为引起了极大的轰动和争议，其他的经理教练甚至不允许他的球员上场比赛。但是比利坚持自己的想法，将队里其他的优秀队员卖到其他俱乐部，其他经理教练别无它法只能让他的队员上场。在一片质疑和批评中，比利带领他的队伍取得了胜利甚至可以和实力强劲的洋基队比肩。
正是比利独特的管理模式以及向老旧的模式挑战的勇气带领球队走向胜利。

Billy Beane is the manager of Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball. He is famous for making Oakland Athletics, an ordinary even less than ordinary team ，stand out among MLB. His fresh ways of operation and management become popular after the publication of Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game, which was turned into a movie in 2011.
Among the competitive MLB, Billy Beane’s team was only third grade in terms of staff, equipment or fund. However, with the help of his friend Peter, by his own unique management skills and contrary thinking, he looked and called together some baseball members who were bad-tempered or not good on surface but proficient in certain area of baseball sport. Of course, this move caused a great sensation and argumentation among the coaches and other managers, who forbade Billy’s members entering the field. In order to change the system, Billy sold out other members who seemed to play well, so the other managers had no choice but to let his members play. Regardless of criticism and question, Billy led his team to the victory and even to the degree that can compete with the strong New York Yankees.
It was Billy’s unique management styles and the courage to fight against the old system that led his team to victory.
