The Pirates gave out an allotment of 20,000 Paul Skenes bobbleheads, honoring him winning National League Rookie of the Year, for their game against the Cleveland Guardians at PNC Park on April 19, which Skenes started in. Fans lined up hours before, with lines going around the ballpark, down the Roberto Clemente Bridge and around the North Shore.

By his standards, Pittsburgh Pirates ace pitcher Paul Skenes was vulnerable against the Cincinnati Reds, but Skenes has a pretty high standard.
