Gymnast and social media superstar Livvy Dunne is a well-known fan of her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates player, Paul Skenes.

Dunne, 21, has cheered the 22-year-old pitcher on in the stands at games, worn his jersey, and been his date to the 2024 All-Star Game. But now that baseball season is drawing to a close, what does Dunne think of his stats?

Dunne is known for her social media persona, where she allegedly makes as much as $500,000 per post. When the Pirates shared Skenes' stats, the name-image-likeness mogul couldn't help but re-share them in her story. She certainly underplayed her reaction to the impressive stats, writing only "Not bad!!!" in the caption.

With an ERA of 1.99, an average of .200, and a new record set for strikeouts by a rookie in the Pittsburgh franchise, it appears that Dunne was humorously underselling Skenes's performance. He's also only the fifth pitcher since 1920 with 150 or more strikeouts in his first 20 pitching appearances.

Far from "not bad," one of his college coaches called Skenes "the most unbelievable thing most people have ever witnessed during a baseball game," per ESPN.

But the competitive nature of both athletes is apparently what drew them to each other in the first place. The couple met at Louisiana State University, where Dunne is currently in her fifth and final season as a gymnast. She is also a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model.

The couple have many fans on social media, and pictures of them together always draw engagement. On their red carpet photo from the All-Star Game, one follower wrote: "Both of you bringing the heat! đŸ”„" while another gushed, "You two are a fantastic couple! It's a lovely match made in heaven. ❀"

Time will tell if Skenes will share his own reviews of Dunne's gymnastics performance this year.
