Default World Series Rings

According to an entry on page 504 of The Cultural Encyclopedia of Baseball (2nd edition), “The feud between 1940s Dodgers Co-owners Walter O’Malley and Branch Rickey spilled over into World Series rings. When Rickey ordered World Series rings for the Dodgers in 1949, O’Malley insisted they turn in their 1947 rings before receiving new ones.”
