Overview

  • Fanatics will exclusively distribute officially licensed Paul Skenes memorabilia, including autographed baseballs, jerseys, hats, photos and game-used equipment.
  • Skenes items will roll out across Fanatics Authentic channels, with offerings planned for the Under Wraps mystery-box program and related product lines highlighted by the company.
  • The partnership follows a March Fanatics Collect auction where Skenes’ 1-of-1 Topps Rookie Debut Patch sold for $1.11 million.
  • Skenes’ on-field surge underpins the market: he is the NL Cy Young favorite with a MLB-best 2.03 ERA and an NL-leading 209 strikeouts in 181.2 innings this season.
  • The Pirates ace joins a Fanatics roster that includes Tom Brady, Aaron Judge, Victor Wembanyama and Sabrina Ionescu under similar exclusive memorabilia agreements.
