Yankees Embarrassing Inning Remembered in Dodgers Championship Ring

The Dodgers got their World Series rings on Friday night and somehow, the New York Yankees were owned again. The ring is covered in gems and symbols. There are palm trees and the Dodgers' iconic logo along with each player's unique signature and the logo and series score of the teams they beat on their way to the franchise's eighth World Series title.

Those five stones represent the five runs the Dodgers scored in the fifth inning of Game 5 of the World Series. Yes, that inning. The one where the Yankees forgot how to field, throw, catch routine fly balls or cover first base. It was the most embarrassing stretch of baseball the Yankees played all season, and it happened on the biggest stage. And now it's literally memorialized in stones. It's not the first time the Dodgers have trolled the Yankees about Game 5. The team's charity auctioned off the ball that Aaron Judge missed in that inning this winter. Advertisement During the offseason, Dodgers reliever Joe Kelly took every chance he got to remind the baseball world just how lopsided that inning was. Kelly, as usual, didn't exactly hold back, saying his son's Little League team had better fundamentals than Gerrit Cole, who failed to cover first base in that inning. The Yankees have agonized over that inning all winter. They have not made excuses and admitted that it stings. They did not take the bait when the Dodgers made comments this winter. They have said all the right things and have used it as motivation. Now, that memory will be glistening on the fingers of the 2024 Dodgers for the rest of their lives. The Yankees? They'll keep wearing it, too—just without the ring.
