The Washington Nationals unveiled their World Series rings during a virtual ring ceremony. The design features many precious jewels and mementos commemorating their magical and improbable run to the franchise’s first World Series title.
Among the numerous features of the ring, a shark symbol to honor Gerardo Parra’s “Baby Shark” walk-up song that captivated the Nationals fans throughout the season. The teams’ logo the Nationals beat in their title run are engraved inside the ring with each series score. Additionally, the date — “10.30.19” — Washington clinched their first World Series.
Other main features include 30 custom-cut genuine rubies, representing the 30 runs the Nationals scored in their four World Series wins. There’s 32 custom-cut sapphires, 108 diamonds and 12 rubies on each end, representing their 12 postseason wins.
Each player’s name is engraved and their jersey number set in diamonds. There are five stars that represent the five elimination games won. Four of the stars are coated in diamonds for the franchise’s four NL East division titles. The last is in ruby to represent the club’s World Series title.
The outer of the shank of the ring has the team’s 2019 mantra engraved “GO 1-0 EVERYDAY.”
It’s a masterpiece to say the least. Championship rings have become illustrations of details towards a team winning a title. The Nationals seemingly left no stone unturned detailing their magical 2019 season.
