About This Fitted
New Era delivers a stunning tribute to one of baseball’s most dominant championship runs with this Oakland Athletics Battle of the Bay 1989 World Series fitted hat in green. This 59FIFTY commemorates the Athletics’ incredible sweep of the San Francisco Giants in what was supposed to be the long-awaited cross-bay rivalry showdown. The special 1989 World Series side patch makes this $49.99 release from sports_world_165 an instant must-have for A’s collectors and baseball history enthusiasts alike.
While most fans remember this series for the devastating Loma Prieta earthquake that interrupted Game 3, true baseball aficionados know the A’s put on an absolute clinic that October. Oakland scored a record-setting 32 runs across the four games, outscoring the Giants by an astronomical 18 runs (32-14) to become arguably the most dominant World Series team in history, even surpassing the legendary 1927-28 Yankees. The series also featured some unique moments, including the Yale Whiffenpoofs performing the national anthem for Game 1 and two members of the 1989 Little League World Series team throwing out ceremonial first pitches to A’s catcher Terry Steinbach.
This green colorway perfectly captures the A’s classic aesthetic from their championship era, making it essential for any serious fitted collection. With the 1989 Earthquake Series representing such a unique moment in baseball history, this commemorative piece connects collectors to both the A’s dynasty years and one of the most memorable World Series ever played. Available in sizes 7 through 8, this release celebrates a team that didn’t just win a championship, they absolutely dominated it.
