Ring 'Em Up!

Another great day on the South Side Tuesday as the Championship Rings were passed out to the team. The rings were designed by Jerry Reinsdorf's wife, Martyl, who also designed five of the six championship rings for the Chicago Bulls. The rings are made of a 14-karat yellow gold with a 14-karat white gold insert. Each one contains 95 diamonds of various sizes. In all, 432 rings were made for the team's players, staff and employees. That's right, 432 rings! Also getting rings were Hall of Famers Luis Aparicio and Carlton Fisk and families of past team owners, including Charles Comiskey, Mary Frances Veeck and John Allyn.

Former players Aaron Rowand, Orlando Hernandez, Willie Harris and Timo Perez were all on hand to receive their rings. Frank Thomas and Geoff Blum were the only two that could not make the event.
