About This Fitted
New Era is bringing the magic of the Bronx to life with this stunning Yankees 2000 World Series 59FIFTY fitted hat, featuring a mesmerizing glow-in-the-dark purple colorway with a pink under brim. This commemorative piece celebrates one of the most historic World Series in baseball history, when the Yankees defeated their crosstown rivals, the Mets, in the first Subway Series in 44 years. The side patch proudly displays the 2000 World Series logo, marking the Yankees’ third consecutive championship and their 26th overall title.
The backdrop of the historic 2000 World Series makes this fitted even more special for collectors. While Yankees fans were celebrating their dynasty, the city had changed dramatically since the last Subway Series in 1956, with subway fares jumping from 15 cents to $1.50 and box seats skyrocketing from $5 to $160. Perhaps most fascinating was Yankees coach Don Zimmer, who found himself on the winning side this time after being in the opposing Brooklyn Dodgers dugout during the 1956 series with a fractured cheekbone. The championship was sealed by Luis Sojo’s clutch two-out single in the ninth inning of Game 5, a moment that solidified this Yankees team among the greatest dynasties in sports history.
Available now at ecapcity for $44.99, this glow-in-the-dark fitted represents more than just a championship commemoration. It’s a tribute to the Yankees’ incredible feat of winning three consecutive World Series, something only accomplished three times in MLB history, and the Yankees did it three different times. The unique colorway and special glow feature make this piece a standout addition to any serious fitted collection, perfectly capturing the electric atmosphere of that unforgettable Subway Series showdown.
