At the moment there are two groups of fans; those who support the Dodgers and those who support the Yankees, prior to the start of the <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2022/01/jon-lester-announced-his-retirement-from-baseball/” title=”Jon Lester announced his retirement from baseball”>World Series. Perhaps, there is a third person who doesn’t suit any of them and just wants to enjoy baseball and nothing else. Now, but Individually there is a player who, regardless of who wins, will also be a winner.
His name is Taylor Trammell, and in the 2024 season he wore the uniforms of both teams. First he did it with those from California, and then with those from the Bronx. In total he played five games with each one and only left records of two runs scored, one hit, one walk and three strikeouts.
And although Today it is not even with New York (he plays for the Triple A team), if the Bombers win – or lose – he will still receive his World Series championship ring. But how is this possible?
Who is Taylor Trammell and why will he receive the World Series championship ring?
First we have to talk about the player. 27 years old, Trammell works in the outfield and is left-handed. He debuted in the Major Leagues in 2021 with the Seattle Mariners and remained there until earlier this year. He couldn’t make the team after Spring Training, so the Dodgers took him.
Their adventure lasted from April 5 to 15. 10 days nothing more, five shifts taken and only one ownership. Five days later, he was taken by the Yankees who cut Kevin Smith from their 40-man roster.
Taylor Trammell has played at least 5 games with both the Yankees and the Dodgers.

On May 3, after five games, he was the last one he played with the first team, before being sent to the Triple-A affiliate RailRiders Scranton, with whom he played 106 games, He hit 18 home runs and drove in 63 runs. Additionally, he hit .256 with an average.
Now, why will he be decorated? Well: “Any player who has accumulated service time on the roster of a team that wins the World Series is entitled to a ring.”cites an article by ESPN.
This means that, regardless of what happens, having been on both teams during the campaign, Trammelll will be awarded.
“Now I have a ring and that’s an incredible thing to say. “For me, this is so impressive because I can say I’m a World Series champion now.”he confessed to The Athletic. “The next step is to be a World Series champion and be there when they win. That’s the next goal.
However, this is not the first case. Bengie Molina played for the Texas Rangers and San Francisco Giants in 2010. Both reached the World Series and it was the Bay team who became champions.
By that fall, the Puerto Rican was already wearing the Rangers uniform, and although he lost on the field, he received his championship ring.
