Earthquake Series Fitted: New Era Drops Giants 1989 World Series & FIFA World Cup Tribute

New Era just dropped something truly unique for Giants faithful with this San Francisco Giants 1984 All-Star Game & 1989 World Series 2026 FIFA World Cup Poster 59FIFTY fitted cap, now available at my_fitteds for $55. This special release commemorates one of the most memorable World Series in baseball history, featuring a side patch honoring the Giants’ 1989 World Series appearance in what became known as the infamous ‘Earthquake Series.’ Available in sizes 7 1/8 through 7 3/4, this fitted blends baseball history with the upcoming FIFA World Cup in a way only New Era can deliver.

The 1989 World Series remains one of the most dramatic chapters in baseball lore, not just for the Bay Area showdown between the Giants and Athletics, but for the devastating 6.9 magnitude Loma Prieta earthquake that struck just 30 minutes before Game 3’s first pitch at Candlestick Park. The earthquake delayed the Series for 10 days, making it one of only three World Series matchups between teams from the same metropolitan area in MLB history. Despite the Giants’ valiant effort, the Athletics dominated with a complete four-game sweep, the first in 13 years, with Dave Stewart throwing a masterful complete-game shutout in the opener.

For collectors, this fitted represents more than just another team cap, it’s a tribute to resilience and one of baseball’s most unforgettable moments. The combination of the 1989 World Series patch with the unique FIFA World Cup poster design creates a conversation piece that bridges sports history with contemporary culture. Whether you’re a Giants die-hard who remembers watching that earthquake-interrupted Series or a fitted enthusiast drawn to unique commemorative pieces, this release captures a pivotal moment when baseball and real-world drama collided in the most unexpected way.
