Olivia “Livvy” Dunne joined her fellow Sports Illustrated models at Citi Field on Monday evening to watch the Pirates play against the Mets, with Dunne’s boyfriend, Paul Skenes, pitching for Pittsburgh.
The ex-LSU gymnast didn’t have the role of throwing the first pitch; instead, this was done by Xandra Pohl, Camille Kostek, and Ellie Thumann. Major League Baseball (MLB) shared a brief clip of Dunne on the field prior to the start of the game.
“Hey Livvy Dunne here, saying hi from Citi Field. Woohoo!” she said in the video.
Dunne was wearing a backward Pirates hat while her fellow SI models sported customized Mets jerseys with their names on the back.
The New Jersey native was spotted posing for a selfie with Kostek, Pohl and Thumann on the field before the three threw out the first pitch.
Dunne remained by the track, giving her support as they moved onto the field and delivered pitches to Mark Vientos, Tyrone Taylor, and Huascar Brazoban, who were ready and waiting.
The timing seemed to work out perfectly for Sports Illustrated with the release of their annual swimsuit edition slated for Tuesday, allowing for the women to be at Citi Field at the same time.
Dunne was there, of course, to support the Pirates’ star pitcher Skenes, who also started Monday’s game. It was the reigning NL Rookie of the Year’s first career start at Citi Field.
She appeared to be having a blast during her night out at the ballpark.
Dunne was spotted dancing in a suite at Citi Field with a beverage in her hand while music blared over the stadium sound system.
Skenes and Dunne have been dating since their days together as star athletes at LSU.
Dunne had announced her retirement from gymnastics last month in a post on social media.
The two were first linked in 2023.
Monday began a three-game series between the Mets and Pirates at Citi Field before the Amazin’s face their crosstown rival, the Yankees, over the weekend in The Bronx.
The Mets had entered Monday’s game having won four of their last six games and holding a 1 ½ game lead in the NL East over the Phillies.
