While the fall classic has only just begun - Game 1 featured a decisive victory by the Toronto Blue Jays over the Los Angeles Dodgers - Kennedy and Urena are guaranteed to receive a ring no matter who wins.
Kennedy and Urena both appeared in games for the Blue Jays and Dodgers during the 2025 season. While their time in the organizations was brief, the modern trend of awarding a ring to any player appearing in at least one game means that both journeymen will come out winners.
Buddy Kennedy is ecstatic about his World Series victory

Kennedy appeared in 13 games this season while playing for three different teams. In addition to his two games for the Blue Jays and seven appearances in Dodger blue, he also suited up four times for the Philadelphia Phillies.
In Urena's case, his journey was even more nomadic. The pitcher was on five different major league rosters and appeared in a total of 19 games. In addition to Toronto and Los Angeles, he also popped up in games for the New York Mets, Minnesota Twins, and Los Angeles Angels. He has played for a total of ten teams since the beginning of 2021.
Kennedy embraces unique 2025 season with viral social media post
Each player has responded in their own. While Urena admitted that it wasn't necessarily fun, it was part of the game.
It's not fun, but at the end of the day, it's business. Every player, the next team they join, they want to be there. They want to be home. They want to be there until the last day. But the game sometimes doesn't go the way you want.
Kennedy meanwhile, had fun with the situation with a viral story on his instagram.
While their seasons might not have gone they way they hoped, at least they will come out winners. They just need to wait to fin who that will be with.
