Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott hyped up Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jake Mangum after his historic performance against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday night. Mangum went 4-for-4 in just his second MLB game while adding two stolen bases to help the Rays beat the Pirates 6-1 under the lights at George M. Steinbrenner Field.
In doing so, Mangum became the first MLB player since 1901 to record four hits (including an XBH) along with multiple steals in his first two appearances. On Tuesday, Prescott reposted Mangum's achievement on Instagram with a one-word message for the Rays star.
"HailSTATE," Prescott wrote on his IG story while also tagging Mangum.
