Livvy Dunne has relatable agonized face at bf Paul Skenes' final start of season

In this story:
Livvy Dunne might live like a rock star as a model and influencer, but tonight, the 22 year old felt just like one of us as a diehard baseball fan.
The former NIL superstar and multi-millionaire was at Great American Ball Park to watch her longtime boyfriend Paul Skenes have one last dominating performance for the Pittsburgh Pirates in a 4-3 win against the Cincinnati Reds, throwing six scoreless innings and striking out seven to cap off a truly history MLB season for the 23-year-old flame-throwing ace.

Dunne was suffering through every pitch with an agonized face that was caught on-camera as naturally she had to capture him pitching with her smartphone.

In her defense, it was a tense moment as Skenes had gotten little run support, like the entire season, and was only up 1-0 in the bottom of the fifth inning with a runner on third and two outs. Skenes got out of the jam and became the only pitcher ever to finish a season with 200+ strikeouts and an ERA below 2.00 not to have a winning record.
But then again, winning records for starting pitchers are an archaic stat and finished with an amazing WHIP of 0.95 and is the Cy Young winner favorite.

Since ERA became an official stat in both leagues in 1913, Paul Skenes is the only MLB pitcher to finish a season with 200+ strikeouts and a sub-2.00 ERA and yet not have a winning record. pic.twitter.com/KLREg19rdo

Dunne used to be the bigger name of the sports power couple, and while the former LSU gymnast is still having big-time success as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover model and big brand ambassador, Skenes might now have taken that crown.
Dunne took to her Instagram Stories, writing lovingly about the former LSU College World Series winner, where the two met while at Baton Rouge, "best szn I did ever see."

Too bad it was for the lousy Pirates.

UPDATE: Dunne reacted to her agonized face, saying, "can't blame a gal for being nervous."
