The Pittsburgh Penguins took on the Washington Capitals in Game 4 of a big playoff showdown series on Wednesday night, and one of the Pirates' own was on-hand in full regalia.

Pitcher Gerrit Cole was spotted by the cameras and given some time on the Jumbotron, and he made it count with some seriously emphatic cheering and a robust "LET'S GO PENS" chant:
