Question
Besides Jack Morris, what other pitcher or pitchers have taken 3 or more world series ring with as many different teams?

Answer
John,

 Interesting question. Here is the list:

Joe Bush
Roger Craig (if you count Brooklyn & LA Dodgers as two teams)
Clem Labine (if you count Brooklyn & LA Dodgers as two teams)
Jack Morris
Dave Stewart
Virgil Trucks (pitched in 1945 for Detroit, on roster but did not pitch for NY Yankees in 1958, was a pitching coach for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1960)

Also interesting that only two hitters were with 3 separate WS winners: Stuffy McInnis and Wally Schang.

Cheers,
Tom
