1962 World Series Fitted: New Era Honors Yankees Championship with Kelly Green Tribute

New Era’s latest tribute to Yankees history comes in the form of this stunning Kelly Green New York Yankees Gray Bottom 1962 World Series Side Patch 59FIFTY fitted hat, available exclusively at exclusive_fitted for $49.99. This unique colorway commemorates one of baseball’s most dramatic championships, when the Yankees captured their 20th World Series title in a heart-stopping seven-game battle against the San Francisco Giants that literally came down to the final at-bat.

The thrilling 1962 World Series was filled with incredible drama that makes this commemorative piece even more special. Game 6 was delayed three days by rain in San Francisco, creating unusual rest time that allowed the same two pitchers, Ralph Terry and Jack Sanford, to face off three times during the series, including the decisive Game 7. Perhaps most remarkably, going into the bottom of the 9th inning of that final game, the Giants had actually outscored the Yankees 21-20 over the entire series, yet the Yankees won 4 games to 3 thanks to Bobby Richardson’s series-clinching catch of Willie McCovey’s screaming line drive with the tying and winning runs in scoring position.

For fitted hat collectors, this Kelly Green colorway represents something truly special in Yankees tribute pieces. The bold green against the gray bottom creates a striking visual that stands out from typical Yankees colorways, while the 1962 World Series side patch serves as a conversation starter about one of baseball’s most nail-biting championships. With only size 7 1/2 available, this exclusive release from New Era captures both the drama of that legendary October and the craftsmanship collectors expect from the 59FIFTY line.
