Paul Skenes, the top pitching prospect in baseball, made his highly anticipated MLB debut earlier this week for the Pittsburgh Pirates. The right-handed pitcher was the first overall pick in last year's MLB Draft after an impressive performance as the ace of the College World Series champion LSU Tigers.
Skenes began the season in Triple-A, where he excelled with a remarkable 0.99 ERA in seven starts, earning a promotion to the major leagues. In his debut game, he showcased his talent by striking out seven batters, including the first two he faced, with a fastball reaching 102 mph and a sharp breaking ball.
