Nomar Garciaparra Red Sox Career Highlights | Red Sox Rewind 

From his rookie year till he hurt his wrist he was a first ballot hall of Famer, and up until 2004 he was at hall of fame trajectory but he was never the same between the wrist and some Achilles injury and still a sox legend and class act !

Best hitting shortstop I ever saw!! Die hard yankees and jeter fan but Nomar was amazing at the plate! That 2000 season my god, never seen a right handed hitter that locked in!

Nomar, Pedro, manny, big Papi. The Red Sox roster of my childhood was amazing.

I went to the game where he spoke at the very end of this clip just because I heard he was gonna be there. My childhood hero and the hero of many kids throughout New England in the late 90s and early 00s.

He was an absolute superstar and better shortstop in the late 90s than jeter. His wrist injury totally changed everything.

Man seeing this makes me think of my childhood. Makes me think of playing baseball in town. Makes me think of going to red Sox games. Makes me think of my Dad. I was born in 85

Never will Nomar Garciaparra be Forgotten in Beantown!

I grew up in Los Angeles. But Nomar Garciaparra (a local) was and is my favorite player of my lifetime. Hardcore Dodger fan but every year I rooted for the Sox come playoffs. When we got him in 2006 I have never been happier. A shame we couldn't get it together when he led that incredible offense in '06, 4-20+ homer lineup. Hope all my fellow "NOMAAAH" lovers make it through this so we can see if we ever get to see another shortstop as skilled and as talented as he was. Best shortstop ever!

Nomar, my favorite player ever.

I was 5 years old when I started getting heavily into baseball. Nomar Garciaparra was my first favorite player. Till this day, he's my all time favorite. Go Sox

It's a shame his career was cut short by injuries. He was a nice guy, a special hitter, and his years in a Sox uniform were outstanding.

Back in the day he was always on my team in Backyard Baseball (the computer game) He will always be one of my favorite players.

nomar’s heart & soul of redsox. he’s a hero forever in my heart.

My all time favorite. Grew up in MA watching this guy play. He was a sure fire HOFer before 2004. Great guy. Just couldn’t stay healthy. He was the beginning of the Sox resurgence. 99’ and 03’ teams were memorable. Makes you wonder had he stayed could he have prolonged his career maybe 3-4 more 02’-03’ type seasons, maybe had a chance at the Hall? He wasn’t the same after he left. I remember his 00’ season, hitting .372. Thought he’d be the guy to get that elusive .400. Wrist and Achilles did him in. Thanks for the memories Nomah!

Nice video showing highlights of Nomar Garciaparra in a Red Sox uniform!!! He was a great Red Sox player!!!

I think the people who didn't see him play don't realize how good Nomar was.

Nomar would've been remembered differently had he won in boston. Easily the best rookie season in Red Sox history besides Yaz and Fred Lynn

Hit for amazing contact and moderate power. Not to mention he is HARD to strikeout. Incredible defense too. Was on the way to become an all time great. Shame but don’t be sad it was over quick. Just be happy we was able to witness his greatness he had for those seasons in Boston.

He's my favorite player all-time in my decades of baseball fandom

Favorite baseball player. Got me in baseball

The two grand slam game is legendary

Nomar>Jeter Injuries derailed this guy and I will die on this hill

Nomar forever.

The fact he never won mvp still amazes me he batted 372 one year in 140 games and didn't win mvp ok

Nomar easily was better than Jeter in their primes.

So he had 178 hr with Sox but only 69 RBI - quite a incredible accomplishment - 6:14

I was sitting on leftfeid side seats,when Nomar hit his first c areer HR. What a thrill as a REDSOX fan..

Nomah!

NOMAR my GUY!!!

You won in the 1918 pandemic. Don’t give up the pandemic winning streak!

I'm from Makati city Philippines 🇵🇭 onnninn LNG and s fan of Nomar,,

And this is why I’m happy I have his signature

We need a defensive highlight video!

This guys career was like a shooting star. Went by so quickly. Theo had balls of steel to trade him but it worked out for the best. For any long time sox fan 2004 was magic. The fact that they won 3 more world championships after then is bananas. Think of all the fans that died during the 86 year drought. The Sox can never win another championship and I’m still satisfied.

Real baseball ⚾️😎 player ...from beginning, til end #excellence

Nomar was something special, until the injury. For me, he passed Jim Ed as my favorite player and if there'd never been a #34 he still would be.

It really is too bad about taking that ONE pitch in the wrist, in the middle of a wonderful career, ended it. Think about how many times from a little kid through school college minor league and like 8-10 years in the bigs, how many times u get hbp and u just get a lump and a bruise. I remember all these moments fondly and love you Nomar

he 's my favorite player

He had mvp numbers for 7 years. Never got respect for those rewards when he was batting 340 plus

Memories!

This is my favorite player

Might wanna fix the typo that says he has 69 career RBI’s with the Sox lol. It should be 690.

the green monster before all the ads was really a sight to behold

Nomar Garciaparra was much better than Manny Ramírez and Big Papi

NOMAH!!

Great player!

6:16 career 69 RBI’s?

6:14 I think there's a 0 missing at the end of those 69 RBIs. Lol

Let’s beat The New York Yankees big time this year.

Was a top five player in the AL when with the Sox

NOMAH BABY!!

Always remember back in the late '90s and early 2000s ESPN would always show Jeter, nomar, and A-Rod, and call them the three future Hall of famers. There were times when nomar's numbers looked better than both of the other guys, he was the best pure hitter, a dead first strike swinger who was just trying to put the ball in play. Several times his average crept up there around 400 for a lot of the season and we really thought he was going to break the record. But injuries he started having were ashamed, people claim that when he left Boston he started taking that Mexican gas to try and get stronger and then played first base and started getting injured and it was all over. Those were the good old days, I remember in 2004 being bummed when he got traded although we still liked Orlando Cabrera. It ended up being the right move, I wonder if no more kept his world series ring or not.

I still can’t believe that when he was traded in 2004 the Sox won the World Series. I honestly thought the Sox blew it with that trade. Nomar must have felt somewhat empty when the Sox won that year

Blood Related to Nomar GarciaParra! My mother was Dr. Josefa Parra Levin! My name is Alexander Gregory Levin! Stay in touch!

Him and Mo were my favorites growing up

Joe Buck, that's the left field line, not right field

He. Just. Couldn't. Stay. Healthy.

If he were only a part of the 2004 championship team. He was technically, but ugh, I wish he was on the team to the end.

He is the reason why I like Red Sox. Red Sox nation follow me Please

until Bogey comes, the Red Sox Nation finally have another shortstop of their own.

Injuries derailed what was going to be a 1st ballot HOF career.

Does (or will) he have his number retired with Boston ?

178 HR, but only 69 (nice) RBI? Weak.

Why MLB THE SHOW(GAME) still doesn't add him to the Legend player ?

I don't think Nomar had 69 RBIs

1 thumb down as of 6/9/20..must be a Yankees fan lol

If the defense is stable, the offense tends to be better

Couldn’t get his career RBI total right for a published video? I think he had more than that 😂 6:17

Look, there he goes again, doing that thing with his batting gloves...

he was gonna be that guy.....over jeter......im telling u

Players back then didn't over celebrate. Think of the show boating from today's players if someone hits 2 grannys. Then expect to get hit the next game and a bench clearing brawl.

Like. if you want another home run derby in Boston...! 💪🏻❤️

I hate the homerun derby so much. ONLY because of that one announcer that thinks he's a chicken. BOK BOK BOK BOK BOK BOK BOK BOK BOK
