Basically my whole life I have seen them on TV commentating for the Giants. Giants fans love Kruk and Kuip....and because they are legendary, they got their rings and I think well-deserved too.
  
Major League teams (and any championship team for that matter) has to pay for any additional ring not covered by the league.  They can choose how many rings to buy and give them out to whoever they want.  It is not uncommon for a championship teams announcer to get a ring.

On a side note, there is a $10 raffle to get a Giants WS ring for yourself.  The winner will actually have his name on it too in the same spot that players have their names.  Pretty cool.  Giants are going all out with our first title in SF.

you can also buy one similar to it for about 5k, or less depending on the metal you want, and stones.
