Every year, the World Series champion is presented with a ring to commemorate that player’s special contribution to their team’s victory in the Fall Classic. Therefore, when in 2009, Alex Rodriguez finally won his first World Series with the Yankees, and he also got a ring. But he didn’t know at the time that very ring would one day become a witness to one of the biggest moments of his life.
He holds that ring close to his heart and has worn it on only special occasions. On his visit to Jimmy Fallon’s show in 2019, he recalled how he almost blew up his proposal plan. “I’ve only worn this ring probably a handful of times. But I said, “this is a big moment.” I kind of gave it away cause when she saw me put on the ring she goes, “Where we going with that ring?” “
