The Detroit Tigers had a little fun with Pittsburgh Pirates superstar pitcher Paul Skenes and it involved his girlfriend, Olivia Dunne.
During the Thursday afternoon game between the Tigers and Pirates in Detroit, which also saw Skenes starting, the Tigers mascot could be seen holding a sign behind home plate referencing Dunne that Skenes could definitely see.
“Sup Livvy Dunne,” the sign, which also included hearts on it, read.
No doubt a funny little troll from the Tigers mascot, but Dunne had the perfect response, also.
“Sorry… not my type of tiger,” Dunne wrote on X.
Of course, Dunne’s type of tiger is the LSU tiger, the mascot of the college she attended. Dunne was a gymnast at the school before her graduation in December of 2024.

LSU is also where Skenes and Dunne met. Skenes was a superstar pitcher for the Tigers before he was drafted by the Pirates with the No. 1 overall selection in the 2023 MLB June Amateur Draft.
Dunne rose to superstardom as an online influencer. Dunne has approximately 13 million followers across TikTok and Instagram.

Meanwhile, Skenes is in his second season in the MLB and has been as advertised for the Pirates, even with Pittsburgh being an awful team.
Entering Thursday’s game, Skenes was 4-6 with an impressive 1.78 ERA. He is arguably the best pitcher in baseball.
