Livvy Dunne Sweats Through Boyfriend Paul Skenes’ Shutout Attempt

Livvy Dunne is Paul Skenes’ No. 1!

The former LSU gymnast was locked in on the action Wednesday night, when her longtime boyfriend closed out his season with the Pittsburgh Pirates by pitching a shutout through six innings.

In a video from the moment, the 22-year-old TikTok star — who wore a white scoop neck long-sleeved shirt and jeans — was seen looking on from a suite and filming Skenes’ performance while yelling at the mound.

“Come on!” Dunne shouted as she pumped her fist in seeming encouragement.

Skenes went on to close out the inning but failed to get the decision in the Pirates’ 4-3 win against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park.

The two-time All-Star’s second MLB season has been another for the record books. 

Skenes, 23, finished his sophomore campaign with a 1.97 ERA, becoming the youngest pitcher to sport a sub-2.00 ERA since Dwight Gooden, according to ESPN. 

Or, as Dunne summed up on her Instagram Stories: ”Best szn I ever did see.”

With the Pirates out of post-season contention, Skenes shared his perspective about his final start after the game. 

“I wanted to savor it knowing this was my last outing of the year,” Skenes told reporters. “I won’t be doing that again for six months or so. It’s kind of a tough realization. The past few days have been pretty tough for me, knowing that. Nice to have it over with.”

He added, “Wish I could keep pitching, just for the joy of pitching. The sub-2 [ERA] is a nice little byproduct of it, I guess.”
