Rays and Phillies and Baseball Diamond Rings. 4/12/2009
Monday the 13th will be a great day for the Tampa Bay Rays baseball organization. Not only will they have the ceremony to raise and hang the flags from winning their AL East title, and not only will they receive the AL Championship diamond rings, but they get to do it all in from of the New York Yankees. Players and Major League staff will get their rings in a pre-game ceremony, employees on Wednesday, and some will have their rings delivered to Japan or other far-off places.
Three versions of the ring have been made, not counting the cool “replica ring” being given out to fans on April 14. The Major League squad gets the most diamonds, the staff in the Rays organization gets the next level, and affiliates get a bit of bling of their own, too. The real rings are very similar to the replica rings, only with real diamonds.
And the Yankees have to watch.
