Art Jorgens

I just saw this on former Yankee Art Jorgens over at Baseball-Reference.com -

Jorgens holds the all-time record for World Series games in which he was on the roster without ever appearing in a game. He was on the post-season roster for the Yankees in 1932 and 1936-39 (23 games total), but never apeared in a post-season game for them.

I had never heard this before. This is why I love baseball. It’s possible to learn something new everyday.

Back to Jorgens, he passed away 26 years ago. I wonder where all his rings are today? I would have to think that those are very unique collectables.
