Accord Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Chipping in for ring: Several players chipped in to buy a World Series championship ring for team chaplain Chris Lane. "I was totally shocked," said Lane, who sported the large ring Sunday. Lane became team chaplain in 1998, the season after Florida's first World Series title. Tommy Phelps presented the ring to Lane in the clubhouse after the Marlins received their rings in a pregame ceremony on Saturday. Very classy . http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/...s_fla&fext=.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnylons Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Just a reflection of the magic that this organization has right now. These things, to me, always trickle down from the top. This is a very special organization and I hope they get a stadium deal done to keep this thing going. Just a great story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
