Jake Mangum Targeted in Elaborate Birthday Prank

Pirates outfielder Jake Mangum was the target of a lighthearted prank by teammate Paul Skenes, who arranged for a massive, custom-designed buttercream cake to be delivered to Mangum's locker. The cake, which featured treasure-themed decorations and references to Mangum's birthday, provided a moment of levity during spring training. Mangum, who took the prank in stride, plans to seek retribution when Skenes celebrates his own birthday on May 29.
