Paul Skenes' remarkable rookie season with the Pittsburgh Pirates added another memorable moment as he was named the starting pitcher for the National League for Tuesday's MLB All-Star Game.
The 22-year-old Skenes will become only the fifth rookie pitcher to start the All-Star Game, joining Hideo Nomo (1995), Fernando Valenzuela (1981), Mark Fidrych (1976) and Dave Stenhouse (1962).
WARNING: A heat wave is about to hit Texas.
