Arguably the biggest star on your team...in a moment where it would have been completely reasonable for him to excitedly run to the mound to celebrate...selflessly remains at the dugout to help an injured and far lesser known player get to the mound with everyone else to celebrate with his teammates.

I don't think anyone ever did, but if a person/GM had even the slightest of concerns about Skenes's character, that act eliminated all of those. Skenes didn't do that for a photo-op or to go viral on social media. He simply did it because it was the right thing to do....even though he knew it meant he was going to be the last person to get to the celebration because of it.



Skenes is a top guy, I would say the service taught him that but he seems like he was that kinda guy his whole life

Before the final pitch, I told my wife, I hope they carry milazzo out and toss him on top of the pile. Strike 3 happens and here comes Skenes out of the dugout with Milazzo on his back. It was the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. Couldn’t be more proud of this team’s accomplishments and the character of each guy on the roster.

Well, he was in the Air Force so he could only be a top or a bottom.

I don't think he learned to be that way at Air Force. I think it's the reason he was at Air Force in the 1st place.
