Congratulations to the 2025 MLBoyfriends who have been selected for the All-Star Game!
Every Monday, I announce my current MLBoyfriend--my favorite baseball player from the previous week of play.
Congratulations to the 2025 MLBoyfriends who have been selected for the All-Star Game!
Then, in his second start of the week on Sunday, May 25, Skubal threw a Maddux--meaning he pitched 9 full innings and shut out the other team in few than 100 pitches.
In the first complete game of his career, Skubal gave up only 2 hits and 0 walks (0.22 WHIP) while striking out 13 batters. Of course, his ERA for a shut-out was 0.00 and he definitely earned a win. To guild the lily, Skubal's final pitch was a 102.6 mph strike--which is insane (and possibly record-breaking) for so many reasons.
Congratulations, Tarik Skubal! You are my MLBoyfriend of the week.
