All theWorld Seriesmemories and emotions came flooding back for theLos Angeles Dodgersand their fans on March 27 at Dodger Stadium.
The remaining members of the 2025 team were individually called from the dugout and onto the stage to receive their rings beforethe gameagainst theArizona Diamondbacks.
Shortstop Mookie Betts received his fourth career World Series ring, the most of any active player.
"It's super special and this day never gets old," Betts told Spectrum SportsNet in the moments after receiving his ring. "It shows the accomplishments we made and hope we can do it again."
Pitcher Clayton Kershawretired after the World Series, but was also in attendance at the stadium for a second straight night to follow up his broadcasting debut on NBC.
Kershaw was not initially announced among his former teammates, but received a thunderous ovation nonetheless.
Dodgers legend Orel Hershiser was headed to the mound to throw out the ceremonial first pitch before manager Dave Roberts got on the microphone to announce a pitching change, calling on Kershaw from the dugout.
Kershaw stood on the familiar hill to throw the ball to Freddie Freeman before the pitcher was handed his ring and embraced by his teammates, who made their way back out of the dugout.

What do the Dodgers' 2025 World Series rings look like?
Each ring includes the words "World Champions" on top of the ring with a blue "LA" featured in the middle.
The top of the ring could be removed to reevaluate a sample of dirt enclosed in the ring and a pair of trophies inscribed with "2024" and "2025" on the respective trophies.
The side panels of the ring included the respective player's last name and number on one panel and the words "Dodgers 2025 BACK 2 BACK" inscribed on the other.
"There are a lot of diamonds, but you can open it up and there's some dirt in there," Betts said. "A lot is going on."
What's next for the Dodgers?
The Dodgers won their season opener against the Diamondbacks on March 26, taking the first game of a seasonexpected to conclude with a third straight championship.
If the Dodgers accomplish the goal, they will become the first National League team to three-peat as World Series champions.
