LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne gushed over boyfriend and top Pittsburgh Pirates prospect Paul Skenes after the No. 1 draft pick stunned in his Spring Training debut on Thursday. 

Skenes, who was the first pick last year after going 13-2 with a 1.69 ERA and 209 strikeouts while leading LSU to the NCAA title, threw 10 pitches, including a 102 mph fastball – a feat Dunne shared on her social media Thursday.

Skenes, who agreed to a record $9.2 million signing bonus in July, expressed his excitement about stepping on the mound in a matchup where he faced two first-round picks – Baltimore Orioles' Jackson Holliday and Adley Rutschman. 

"I think the biggest thing was just getting out there and pitching in front of people, because adrenaline is a big thing," he said after the Orioles’ 9-8 victory.  "Just kind of wanted to see where we’re at."

"Pretty satisfied," he added. "I’ve got some stuff to work on, but yeah, I’m ready to go. Feel good."
