And Dunne, 21, showed his love for Skenes, 22, ahead of Tuesday’s event.

The LSU gymnast wore a white sleeveless top that celebrated her boyfriend’s All-Star appearance.

It featured a cowboy boot with the Pirates’ rookie flamethrower’s last name on it.

On top of the boot was a cowboy hat with Skenes’ jersey number 30 on it.

The top also had All-Star written vertically on the right side.

Dunne posed at the top for a photo before sending it to her Instagram Stories on Monday.

Skenes is the first overall pick to be named an MLB All-Star in the year following the draft.

Livvy celebrated the right-hander’s achievement by throwing a party.

She brought pizza and champagne and prepared a balloon that said All Star.

Skenes will start for the National League team in the 94th Summer Classic.

He will face Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes, who was named the American League’s starting pitcher.

Skenes is having a spectacular rookie season, recording a 1.90 ERA and strikeouts in 66 and 1/3 innings, as well as a 6-0 record.

The California native nearly completed a surprising no-hitter against the Milwaukee Brewers last week.

But he was pulled after seven innings with 11 strikeouts and one walk to his name, causing outrage among fans.

DUNNE AND SKENES’ SUMMER OF LOVE

Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes managed to keep their relationship a secret before finally going public last summer.

The two met at LSU, but it’s unclear when they started dating.

Rumors of a romance began when Dunne watched LSU win the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, last summer.

And Dunne posted selfies from Fort Myers, Fla., where Skenes was playing.

He was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates and began his professional career playing in the minor leagues in the Sunshine State.

The final clue came when Dunne posed in a Pirates cap before the pair finally went public.

The first batter to face Pirates relief pitcher Colin Holderman recorded a single, ending the historic day.

Skenes played in college baseball for the Air Force Falcons.

And he recently said he still wants to serve in the military after his athletic career is over.

“Just being able to give back,” Skenes said USA today.

“An easy task would be to train at the Air Force Academy and develop there.

“So this is a dream of mine.”
