Baseball

Some have asked me what are the more popular sports in Taiwan. Well, it could be ping-pong, or badminton, or basketball, or who knows what, but the main sport is baseball.


I think they are devout followers, and there are always many people playing baseball in the TaiDa and ShiDa campuses. You can hear people talk about baseball and it is very funny to see taiwanese and japanese (boys and girls) discuss about it. There is a taiwanese league, and there are taiwanese players in Japan and even in the US. Two, I think. So, it's very usual to see games of the taiwanese, japanese or american leagues on TV. I think that one of the owners of the NY Yankees is taiwanese, and they also have a taiwanese pitcher there, so there are always Yankees' games on TV. Strange obsessions.
