Photos: Livvy Dunne dresses down in black for Paul Skenes' dominant loss

Much of Livvy Dunne’s appeal is her wholehearted support of boyfriend Paul Skenes.

The Pittsburgh Pirates flame-throwing rookie had a dominant and historic outing yesterday in a 2-1 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, and Dunne traded in her usual perfectly-crafted image to simply be there for her boyfriend.

The Bucs home crowd gave Skenes a standing ovation when he went back on the mound for the ninth inning and started chanting “MVP.”

No doubt the LSU gymnast agrees about Skenes, recently delivering the sweetest one-liner. “My brain can’t even process how hard he throws,” Dunne said. “Like, it is incredible and such a joy to watch. And he’s a great baseball player, but an even better person.”

In other words, Skenes is already Dunne’s MVP.
