That dude is awesome.

The picture of him toting the catcher to the dog pile after the natty is one of my favorites

He should have majored in turf management at LSU.

Skenes is a common man who happens to throw a baseball very well

He runs circles around the other workers, hitting over 100 mph on the push broom.

Skenes said several times when he was at LSU that he hoped after his baseball career is over he could return to the Air Force Academy and either get an advanced degree or a second degree from there.

Of course after he gets used to making many millions a year in baseball he might change his mind.

Thunderbirds need to give Skenes a ride.
I wonder if USAF is salty for him leaving the academy early.

Did LSU ever fill their BIG $$$ spot-field operation/ manager or whatever the title is. Sounded like a pretty sweet job

His coaches over there implored him to transfer because they didn't want him to waste such a rare gift.

Probably not.

The military academies let you opt out after 2 years.

Milazo was a key part of winning that game. Tre Morgan making one of the most athletic plays on a bunt was a major part, but Milazo positioned himself perfectly to cut off a slide that (for all intents and purposes) should have earned Wake a run.
