2014 All-Star Fitted: New Era Drops Target Field Midsummer Classic Tribute

Step up to the plate with this stunning New Era 59FIFTY Infinity Minnesota Twins 2014 All Star Game Patch Road Hat, now available at hat_club for just $29.98. This cardinal, metallic silver, and metallic gold beauty commemorates the 85th edition of the Midsummer Classic, when Target Field played host to baseball’s brightest stars. The Twins organization successfully managed the massive undertaking of hosting all the All-Star festivities, making this fitted cap a perfect tribute to that memorable summer night in Minneapolis.

The 2014 All-Star Game brought some fascinating storylines to the Twin Cities. Former Twins favorite Justin Morneau, then playing for Colorado, didn’t make the final NL roster but still got his Target Field moment by participating in the Home Run Derby, giving fans one last chance to cheer for their beloved first baseman. Meanwhile, Carlos Gómez, another former Twin then with Milwaukee, started in left field for the NL team and earned his second consecutive All-Star selection. Perhaps the most entertaining moment came when 19-year-old local fan Jacob Jacobson went viral after tweeting a fake photo of his ‘injured’ hand from trying to catch a Giancarlo Stanton home run ball, which led to Stanton offering him a glove and ball before the hoax was revealed at Target Field’s All-Star festivities.

For collectors, this fitted represents more than just another All-Star cap, it’s a piece of Twins history from when the organization took center stage in Major League Baseball. With only one size remaining (7 1/4), this metallic-accented beauty won’t last long. The dramatic drop from eight Twins All-Stars in 2013 to just two in 2014 makes this commemorative piece even more special, capturing a unique moment when the team’s stars were few but their hospitality was legendary.
