The full expression is "накатить по второй рюмке" (to drink the second jigger; to take the second shot of alcohol). The preposition "по" refers to the omitted noun "рюмка", so the word "второй" is in Dative case.

Direct translation would be something like "to roll (put) second [shot on top of the first one]".
In Russian drinking culture, before you "дойти до нужной кондиции" you should drink at least three shots. :)
