MLB Approval Still Murky as Moneyball Circles the Drain

Last we checked, a rumor making the rounds insisted that Moneyball stalled because it didn't have Major League Baseball's stamp of approval. Today, meanwhile, Sony co-chairman Amy Pascal opened up a bit about the problems with the Steven Soderbergh/Brad Pitt film that infamously imploded last week just before shooting was to begin. In a separate report, the NY Times offers some of the perspective that we've heard at Movieline HQ as well. Like that whole Soderbergh-vs.-Pascal script issue? I don't doubt it, but I'm not getting the warmest, fuzziest feeling about the project from Major League Baseball, either.
