Pittsburgh Pirates rookie phenom Paul Skenes made history on Sunday night, as he became the first overall pick in MLB history to become an All-Star the following season.

Skenes was named to his first All-Star team just 10 starts into his major league career. The 22-year-old Skenes is 5–0 with a 2.12 ERA, and has allowed just 14 earned runs in 59.1 innings pitched. He has also amassed 78 strikeouts and a 6.5-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio.
