Dunne, who attended Fanatics Fest NYC just last month, is currently dating Pittsburgh Pirates pitching star Paul Skenes.
It should be noted that the set does not include basketball star Caitlin Clark, who signed an exclusive deal with Panini earlier this year. Nonetheless, many credit the WNBA star with the newfound interest in women's sports and collectables.
The set and some early card designs released by Leaf have gotten plenty of love across social media this week.
