“Billy’s 10-year playing vocation included six Significant Association seasons with the Tigers, Dodgers, and Padres.

Bean isn’t the previous senior supervisor of the Oakland Games of a similar name, Billy Beane, who was the focal point of the 2011 personal film “Moneyball” and was depicted by Brad Pitt.
Bean is a previous MLB player who had spells from 1987 to 1995 with the Detroit Tigers, Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres. He had five vocation grand slams with a lifetime batting normal of .226 and 53 RBI.
He was determined to have intense myeloid leukemia in 2023.
