Answer: "It'll be weird since I've been playing with him since we were five when we started out in T-ball."

Explanation: While all of the sentences imply a friendship that is not new, only this one gives an explicit time expression ("since we were five") that confirms they have been friends for years.

"It'll be weird since I've been playing with him since we were five when we started out in T-ball."

Explanation:

The phrase "It'll be weird since I've been playing with him since we were five when we started out in T-ball." it shows that the characters know each other and have had a friendship since they were children and that this friendship accompanied them until adulthood. This can be seen when the character says that they have been playing together since the age of five.
