An Imaginary Discussion Between Byron Buxton and Trevor May
Trevor May: Hey Buxton, how’s it going, man? You’ve been absolutely electric on the field this season!
Byron Buxton: Hey Trevor! Thanks, man. It’s been a wild ride for sure. Appreciate the kind words. Saw some of your streams lately – how’s the gaming world treating you?
Trevor May: Haha, you know me. When I’m not striking out batters, I’m taking down virtual enemies. It’s been great. Keeps me sharp. But seriously, you’ve been on fire. What’s been clicking for you this season?
Byron Buxton: Honestly, it’s all about staying healthy and focused. I’ve been working a lot on my swing and just trying to be smarter on the bases. Plus, can’t hurt having you guys cheering me on.
Trevor May: Dude, the way you cover ground in the outfield is insane. Makes my job easier knowing you’re out there. What’s the secret to that speed?
Byron Buxton: It’s all about the hustle, man. Speed training, agility drills – and maybe a little bit of natural talent. But mostly, it’s pushing myself every single day. What about you, though? You’ve been dominating the mound. What’s your strategy been?
Trevor May: Mixing up the pitches and keeping hitters guessing. And having a mindset like that of a boss. But I gotta know – with your knack for robbing home runs, which catch are you most proud of?
Byron Buxton: Oh man, that’s tough. Probably the grab against Cleveland last year. Just felt like I was flying, and when I came down with the ball – pure adrenaline rush.
Trevor May: That was epic! The energy in the stadium was unreal. Speaking of adrenaline, you ever think of using some of that speed in esports? You’d make a killer teammate in fast-paced games.
Byron Buxton: Haha, who knows? Maybe I’ll join you on one of your streams sometime. Could be fun. For now, I’ll stick to stealing bases and catching fly balls. But I’ll let you know if I ever want to trade cleats for a controller.
Trevor May: Deal. Just promise me you’ll teach me how to steal bases if I teach you how to steal flags in Capture the Flag!
Byron Buxton: You got it, Trevor. It’s a win-win. Let’s keep crushing it – on the field and off!
Trevor May: Always, my man. Always.
