Grensene mellom esport og tradisjonell idrett viskes stadig mer ut. Denne gangen er det Luminosity Gaming som slår et slag for å blande de to verdenene, og dette gjør de ved å hyre inn baseball-proffen Trevor May (Minnesota Twins) til å streame for dem.
Trevor May har allerede 4500 følgere på Twitch, der han hovedsakelig har streamet Overwatch, men i fremtiden skal han altså representere Luminosity Gaming når han sitter foran kameraet.
Luminosity Gaming-eieren Steve Maida benytter lagets offisielle hjemmeside til å komme med følgene uttalelse:
"The first time I spoke to Trevor, we talked at length. As the call ended, Trevor revealed to me that he was just about to start his baseball game. I was pleasantly surprised and I think it speaks volumes about his passion for esports and gaming in general. He is a genuine guy through and through and I couldn't be happier to welcome to Luminosity Gaming. There is so much we can learn from the world of traditional sports, and I hope that Trevor can pass on some of his experience to our players and management."
Baseball-proffen selv hadde følgende kommentar:
"I'm really looking forward to working with Luminosity Gaming. They've quickly established themselves as one of the biggest names in esports, and as a passionate gamer myself, I'm excited to team up with LG and support them."
