About This Fitted
New Era’s latest drop pays tribute to one of the most memorable World Series in baseball history with this Green Oakland Athletics Clouds Bottom 1989 World Series Side Patch 59FIFTY fitted. This stunning green colorway celebrates the A’s dominant sweep of the San Francisco Giants in what became known as the ‘Bay Area Series’ or ‘BART Series.’ At $49.99 from exclusive_fitted, this commemorative piece features the official 1989 World Series side patch and showcases the clouds bottom design that collectors have been craving.
While the Athletics’ 4-0 sweep was impressive enough, the 1989 World Series became legendary for reasons beyond baseball when the devastating Loma Prieta earthquake struck just before Game 3. The aftermath created some unforgettable moments: Jose Canseco was spotted at a gas station in full uniform with his wife pumping gas to avoid fan attention, and players had to take a 90-minute detour home due to bridge closures. Out of respect for earthquake victims, the championship A’s chose not to celebrate with the traditional champagne ceremony, showing the class that defined this Oakland squad.
This fitted represents more than just a championship, it commemorates a team that showed resilience during one of California’s most challenging moments. With World Series MVP Dave Stewart leading the way and Canseco providing the power, this A’s squad was unstoppable on the field while remaining gracious off it. Available in sizes 7 through 8, this green tribute captures the spirit of Oakland’s last World Series title and belongs in every serious collector’s rotation.
