Answer 3

Several players have won a World Series on more than one team, many with the New York Yankees, who through 2009 had won 27 World Series in 40 appearances.
----------

Babe Ruth (1895-1948) holds the lead with seven World Series (3 with the Boston Red Sox and 4 with the New York Yankees).

Five wins was the total for Jim "Catfish" Hunter (1946-1999), who was on 3 World Series teams for the Oakland A's before signing in 1975 with the Yankees, who won in 1977 and 1978. Reggie Jackson similarly had 5, but only 4 actually played in.

David Cone had 5 wins as well, his first after the Mets traded him to the Toronto Blue Jays late in 1992. Paul O'Neill likewise had one in Cincinnati and four more with the Yankees.

The latest players are Johnny Damon and Eric Hinskeof the Yankees, who won in 2009. Like Babe Ruth, they also won World Series with the Boston Red Sox.
---------

Three in Three (and no Yankees wins)
In the modern era, MVP runner-up Lonnie Smith had three World Series rings on three different teams during the 1980's : the 1980 Phillies, the 1982 Cardinals, and the 1985 Royals.
