Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow recently showed major love to Cincinnati Reds infielder Elly De La Cruz.
Burrow sent the city’s other massive sports sensation a signed jersey that said the following: “To Elly: Keep turning up the city.”
The 21-year-old superstar has done just that over 74 games, hitting 12 homers with 31 RBI.
For fans in the city, the ascension of superstars in both major sports has been a wild sight over the last few years. Seeing the two salute one another, then, is a pretty cool moment during the summer slog.
Here is a look at the jersey, courtesy of the Reds:
