The Los Angeles Dodgers celebrated their 2025 World Series title with an ungodly amount of diamonds on Friday.<\/p>\n

The back-to-back champions distributed their World Series rings to players in a pregame ceremony ahead of their second matchup with the Arizona Diamondbacks. They won their season opener 8-2 on Thursday, after unveiling their 2025 championship banner.<\/p>\n

The rings were, of course, opulent and intricate.<\/p>\n

Here is a paragraph from the Champions Collective, the Jostens-backed makers of the rings,<\/a> on how many diamonds and sapphires they jam-packed into these things:<\/p>\n

The ring top is a statement of victory. Embellished around the face in 14K yellow gold, the title WORLD CHAMPIONS is written in a spectacular array of stones: 32 diamonds for WORLD and 54 for CHAMPIONS. At the heart of the design, a singular, immaculate diamond symbolizes the Dodgers\u2019 spot as the No. 1 team in baseball. The iconic LA logo hosts 17 custom-cut blue sapphires, representing the 17 hard-fought games of their postseason journey. Behind the logo is a backdrop of 79 diamonds with 48 round sapphires surrounding the display. The Dodgers’ nine championship dates and 15 sparkling round sapphires encircle the ring top, while an additional 50 diamonds decorate the top and bottom of the bezel. Completing the ring top, a total of 70 round diamonds frame the centerpiece.<\/p>\n

For those keeping score at home, that adds up to 286 diamonds and 80 sapphires on the ring tops alone.<\/p>\n

Other features include a glass enclosure inside the ring displaying dirt gathered from home plate during the Dodgers\u2019 epic Game 7 win over the Toronto Blue Jays and a second, smaller ring inside featuring each player\u2019s signature. The scores of each series from the playoff run are also featured inside, and the team\u2019s 4,012,470 total attendance can be found at the bottom.<\/p>\n

The players, including World Series MVP Yoshinobu Yamamoto, were happy to receive them in a ceremony emceed by Anthony Anderson.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers also brought out the recently retired (and hired<\/a>) Clayton Kershaw to throw out the first pitch and receive his own ring.<\/p>\n

For the national anthem, the Dodgers tempted fate by bringing out Brad Paisley, the man who sang the anthem before both of their 18-inning games in the 2018 and 2025 World Series.<\/p>\n

Two guys without rings help Dodgers to win<\/p>\n

For all the effort put into celebrating 2025, it was either irony or kismet that two of the biggest difference-makers were players who didn\u2019t receive a ring Friday.<\/p>\n

Kyle Tucker and Edwin D\u00edaz, the Dodgers\u2019 two big offseason signings, both came up clutch against the D-backs. Tucker \u2014 he of the four-year, $240 million contract \u2014 drove in the winning run with a single in the eighth inning.<\/p>\n

D\u00edaz then entered for his first save as a Dodger, complete with a live trumpeteer for his \u201cNarcos\u201d entrance. He worked around a one-out walk to complete the 5-4 win for Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers are now 2-0, with expectations for far more wins this season.
