Pittsburgh Pirates rookie pitcher Paul Skenes further proved his absolute excellence on the mound on Saturday by striking out two superstars in a row.
During his team’s first inning against the hosting New York Yankees, Skenes impressively struck out Juan Soto and Aaron Judge back-to-back to keep New York from getting on base with two of its best players.
This was just outrageously cool from Skenes. LSU gymnastics star Livvy Dunne, who is dating Skenes, also had the best reaction in the stands to her boyfriend’s stellar sequence in the game.
Skenes’ rookie season has been one for the ages, as moments like this more than prove.
How are you even supposed to hit Paul Skenes?!?! 🤯
