Grandpa Xu, 69, currently plays for the Maladao BULAO baseball team in Hualien. He played for the Air Force baseball team in his twenties while serving in the army, which sparked a lifelong passion for the sport. After a 40-year hiatus, his love for baseball was rekindled when he joined the BULAO Baseball League.
For him, baseball is not only a means of maintaining physical health but also a treasured memory of his youth. More importantly, he can still enjoy the sport with fellow seniors, even at this stage of life.
As the second oldest among his siblings, Grandpa Xu invited his six siblings to join the Maladao team, sharing his love for the sport with them. In addition to practicing together, they also help with the team's administrative tasks, which have brought them even closer.
