This is a prize befitting of the kings of baseball.
The Royals received their 2015 World Series rings on Tuesday at Kauffman Stadium, and they are dazzling pieces of art.
Jostens designed the rings, which feature two types of gold and a variety of gemstones, and they were given to the team in a special ceremony ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Mets.
They players were fitted for the rings during spring training in Surprise, Ariz., and then left to dream of their appearance. Third baseman Mike Moustakas was excited to see them.
“Coming up through this minor-league organization, we won a ton of rings — Double-A, Triple-A, Single-A, all those rings,” Moustakas said before the ceremony.
