44 year old college baseball player

One Titan baseball player wasn't looking for fame when he came out for the team this season. He just wanted to play ball. But at the age of 44, retired Army Ranger Steve Reider has turned some heads. First with the coaches—but Reider convinced them he was serious and could cut it. Then he needed his wife's approval. Finally, the NCAA signed off as Reider has the grades and the doctors say he's okay to play. But probably Reider's toughest challenge was proving himself to the other players. After all, Reider's old enough to be their father. The County Line's Brad Weaver shows us how this retired military man is fitting in even though he's the "old man" on the Titan squad.
