"When I was at Fresno State, we got a chance to play against Air Force. There was snow on the ground. It was freezing. We're getting ready to take BP. We had our long sleeves on .We had our jerseys on. We got 2 jackets on. And these guys are there wearing shorts & tank tops. A lot of psychological warfare there, but they have a lot of tough kids over there." Pirates All Star outfielder said this : When the national anthem is played before every game, even if he is warming up before his start. he stops, salutes, puts his hand over his heart & stands at perfect attention. We noticed that right away. When he stands for the national anthem, he's so serious . This country means every thing to him".

Still a long way to go but if he ends up being one of the greatest pitchers of all time it will be amazing that he came through LSU.

His HC at the Academy: " When he left for LSU, he wore #20 in honor of Travis Wilkie, who was a catcher before Skeenes & was killed in a training accident in 2019. He was the ultimate leader. He was the first sophomore to be captain of the baseball team .He was the one they believed would be an Air Force general one day, or even be the commander of the base.

Not really "Judge on Skenes" at all but neat story either way

I would some credit to his parents and the Air Force Academy.

Hate to be dramatic, but Skenes really helps restore my faith in humanity.

The Skenes genes bleed red, white, and blue and P&G.
