Yankees' Radio Announcer John Sterling Loses Yankee World Series Rings in Fire

[sports-rings]

John Sterling, the legendary voice to generations of Yankees fans, lost almost everything he owned, but luckily he and everyone else in the apartment building were unharmed.

Everyone getting out of the building safely is much more important than some world series rings that can be replaced, but But since this is the place to discuss championship rings I wanted to share what the rings looked like.

The New York Yankees’ radio voice for every inning of every game since 1989, received a huge outpouring from Yankees staff and also from his many friends.

Typically when something like this happens, the professional sports team will have the ring manufacturing company create replacement rings.

In this instance, Balfour made every single ring shown above and the new ones will look identical to the lost championship rings.
