Throughout Paul Skenes’ last start of the 2025 season, Olivia Dunne was unable to conceal her nervousness, as cameras captured her perspiring throughout almost every pitch her lover made!
The former LSU gymnast traveled to Cincinnati’s Great American Ball Park on Wednesday to watch Skenes pitch one last time in ’25. During the game’s broadcast, Dunne could be seen growing increasingly agitated with each fastball the Pirates flamethrower threw to Reds batters.
Pit stains were clearly visible on her gray shirt by the fifth inning… but her guy quickly relieved her anxiety. The 23-year-old pitched a gem, giving up no runs in six innings. He reduced his season ERA to a pitiful 1.97 while giving up just four hits, walking none, and striking out seven.

He is currently the overwhelming favorite to win the Cy Young award in the National League. Following Pittsburgh’s 4-3 victory, Dunne was able to make light of her nervousness as she wrote on her Instagram page, “can’t blame a gal for being nervous.”
