Baseball season is in full swing—pun very much intended—and Olivia Dunne has found herself back in the stands to cheer on her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes.

However, just because it’s a new season, that doesn’t mean moments from last year aren’t still fresh on the retired NCAA gymnast’s mind. Taking to TikTok late last week, the content creator reminded fans of an unfortunate viral moment from the 2025 season by way of a humorous coincidence.

Dunne’s back in the stands

In case you missed it, last season, during a game between the Pirates and the Cincinnati Reds, Dunne was spotted in the stands. She was wearing a light gray, long-sleeve top and medium-wash jeans, nervously standing to watch the 2025 Cy Young Award winner finish up the game. At one point, the content creator threw her arms over her head, revealing she had a couple of sweat stains.

The moment quickly went viral online, with many fans poking fun at its relatability, as it captured what it often feels like to be a nervous fan watching your favorite team. Dunne herself also made light of the moment, posting jokes about it on her various social media platforms and even partnering with Secret deodorant for a cheeky collaboration.

And the moment found its way back to Dunne’s timeline once more with Skenes’s recent game, when the content creator returned to the proverbial scene of the crime. There, Dunne commemorated the moment with a short, silly video. “Same place, same seat, IYKYK” text over the clips read as the content creator reenacted the moment, this time wearing a white tank, light-wash jeans and a baseball hat. In the caption, Dunne kept the quips going, writing, “same place, same seat, better deodorant #baseball #mlb #livvy.”

Fans are in stitches

Of course, fans of the star were quick to hop in the comment section on TikTok to applaud her willingness to laugh at herself, while also sharing some jokes of their own. One fan shared a photo of the moment in the comments, to which Dunne responded, “We can laugh [about] it now.”

“The search being livvy dunne deodorant 😭😭😭😭,” a user noted, “let her live omg”

“good choice on the tank,” another joked, with Dunne liking the comment.

“He does play for PITTSburgh...” a commenter quipped. “no biggie”

“You’re so brave,” the official account for MLB applauded.
