    Skenes also started the All-Star Game for the National League and ended the season among the favorites to win the NL Rookie of the Year award.

    Dunne recapped some of her favorite moments from his first season in the big leagues on Instagram last weekend, captioning the post, “My little rookie.”

    Skenes pitched his final game of the season at Yankee Stadium last Saturday, tossing two scoreless innings while Dunne watched from the stands.

    “Definitely glad to be able to finish the season and cool to do it here, cool to do it against this lineup. Wish I could keep going, but that’s where we’re at,” Skenes said.

    “I like New York, the Stadium is one of the destinations in baseball for sure, a place to cross off your bucket list. Cool to be out there and pitch. Definitely going to keep checking it out tomorrow.”
