There were A LOT of baseball fans who were so mad that the Pittsburgh Pirates opted to pull Paul Skenes from his last start while the rookie sensation was in the middle of a no-hitter.
But you know who totally gets it? His girlfriend, Livvy Dunne.
Dunne was in attendance at the 2024 ESPYs when she was asked by Sports Illustrated how she thinks Skenes felt about being pulled from the game. Her reply: “You’ve got to make that arm last long, so I don’t blame them.”
Exactly. That’s the answer you’re looking for. Here’s the full video from the ESPYs:
