2013 All-Star Fitted: New Era Celebrates Mets’ Historic Citi Field Hosting

The New York Mets 2013 All-Star Game New Era 59FIFTY Fitted Hat brings back memories of one of the most significant events in franchise history. This GITD (glow-in-the-dark) white crown with black visor and red under brim commemorates when the Mets hosted the Midsummer Classic at Citi Field, marking only the second time in 51 years that the organization welcomed baseball’s biggest stars to Queens. Available now at ecapcity for $49.99, this fitted features the official 2013 All-Star side patch that celebrates a truly historic moment for the franchise.

What makes this commemoration even more special is the incredible baseball history it represents. When the 2013 All-Star Game took place at Citi Field, it made New York City the most frequent All-Star Game host city in baseball history with 9 total games. The event also coincided perfectly with the Mets’ 50th anniversary celebration, and it’s worth noting that when the Mets previously hosted at Shea Stadium in 1964, an incredible 21 future Hall of Famers took the field, including legends like Hank Aaron, Sandy Koufax, and Willie Mays.

For collectors, this fitted represents more than just a commemorative piece, it’s a connection to the Mets’ golden anniversary and their role in making New York the ultimate baseball city. The glow-in-the-dark crown adds a unique touch that sets this piece apart from standard All-Star releases, while the red under brim provides that pop of color that serious fitted enthusiasts appreciate. With the 2013 game being only the second All-Star event in New York in just 5 years, this hat captures a truly special moment in both Mets and MLB history.
