Pirates' Gerrit Cole caught heckling Capitals at Game 4
Gerrit Cole isn't just the Pittsburgh Pirates' de facto ace. He's also a beer-drinking Penguins fan.
The 25-year-old starting pitcher donned a Sidney Crosby jersey, booed the Washington Capitals, and took a large sip of beer before Game 4 of the second-round playoff series at Consol Energy Center on Wednesday night.
Here's another look at Cole booing while poking his head through the glass:
He was later told by the arena staff to tone down the heckling.
The Pirates lost 6-2 to the Chicago Cubs across town at PNC Park earlier in the day. Pittsburgh has a day off Thursday before beginning a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium on Friday.
Cole is from Newport Beach, Calif., but clearly he's embraced the Steel City.
