About This Fitted
New Era just dropped a stunning tribute to one of baseball’s most memorable All-Star Games with this Black Baltimore Orioles Gray Bottom 1993 All Star Game Side Patch New Era 59FIFTY Fitted. This sharp black and gray colorway commemorates the midsummer classic held at Camden Yards in Baltimore, marking the city’s first All-Star Game since 1958. The brand-new ballpark, barely a year old at the time, provided the perfect showcase for baseball’s premier event with 48,147 fans witnessing the American League’s 9-3 victory.
While Kirby Puckett earned MVP honors for his clutch hitting, the real entertainment came from some unforgettable moments that still have fans talking today. John Kruk’s comical strikeout against Randy Johnson became legendary when he ducked away from a high fastball and practically spun back to the dugout in defeat, creating one of the most hilariously memorable All-Star moments ever. The Home Run Derby was equally spectacular, with Ken Griffey Jr. launching a massive 465-foot bomb that actually hit the iconic B&O Warehouse beyond right field, and you can still see the baseball-shaped plaque marking that historic blast today.
What makes this fitted even more special is how it captures the essence of Camden Yards’ throwback design philosophy, which perfectly complemented baseball’s midsummer classic. Available at exclusive_fitted for $49.99 in sizes 7 1/2, 7 3/4, and 7 7/8, this piece represents a pivotal moment when a brand-new ballpark designed to honor baseball’s golden age hosted one of the sport’s most entertaining All-Star Games, complete with hometown hero Cal Ripken Jr. representing the O’s in front of his adoring fans.
