I think it was Ramos, who also had a taped up ring.

Ramos wears this in every game - although there is no ring underneath it.

Apparently he's one of the most superstitious players you'll ever meet.

Perhaps explains the ridiculous haircut in the 2000's.

Apparently a number of players do this - the tape is to signify the fact that they would normally have a wedding ring on that finger.

Is that in case any of the other players think he's 'available' ?

Since I got married wedding rings have become my pet peeve. If I can take mine off why can't they?
