The stars aligned when MLB scheduled the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers to open their new season at home against the Detroit Tigers. The Dodgers received their World Series rings Friday night and they planned a special moment to give current Tigers pitcher and former Dodger Jack Flaherty his ring Saturday.
Flaherty signed a one-year deal with the Tigers before the 2024 season. Detroit traded him to the Dodgers at the deadline. After finishing the season and winning the World Series with L.A., he returned to Detroit over the offseason on a two-year, $35 million deal.
