If you like drinking a couple of cold ones, gimme a hell yeah!While those immortal words are commonly associated with WWE Hall of Famer and prolific beer connoisseur ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader can live up to the billing as well.

To celebrate the Yankees clinching the AL East title after besting the Toronto Blue Jays 5-2 on Tuesday at Rogers Centre, Bader cracked open three cans of Budweiser, poured them down his face and chugged the liquid glory.

After finishing the three cans of Bud, a teammate proceeded to pour another one down Bader’s open mouth. Intaking all that beer left Bader with a build-up of gas, which he let out with a thunderous burp.

In the video that’s making its rounds on social media, Bader wasn’t the only one in a celebratory mood. In the background, Yankees MVP Aaron Judge can be seen pouring sparkling wine on himself.

Tuesday’s win was the 20th time the Yankees have secured the AL East championship since divisional play began in 1969.
