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 !
The Achilles injury hurt Nomar more than the wrist injury.
Nomar, Pedro, manny, big Papi. The Red Sox roster of my childhood was amazing.
Yesmar, womanny, small papi
Same
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!
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.
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
Same, born in 85, do you remember I think it was 2000, the year when all of the pictures names ended in o, they made jokes about nomo, cone, Pedro, a rojo and I think I could get who else but that was the year I believe no more through the no-hitter and nessen was constantly playing that "no no no, no no na no'"lol I remember Ramiro Mendoza and David Cohen being so bad, along with David Wells then I thought the Yankees sent them here to spy on us.
Never will Nomar Garciaparra be Forgotten in Beantown!
I think the people who didn't see him play don't realize how good Nomar was.
He was an absolute superstar and better shortstop in the late 90s than jeter. His wrist injury totally changed everything.
That and turning down 4 years 60 million to try and score more on market and struggled with Achilles I think till they got orlando Cabrera
Eric Sigersmith ...no it was the injury. He wasn’t the same player when he turned down that supposed deal.
It’s sad because he was still great even after the wrist injury but then the Achilles happened and his body just broke down
Alex Rodriguez better than both
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
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!
@@angelomendez6316 Yeah but he wasn't really a part of those rosters, 2006 dude was leading the NL in BA up until the All Star Break. Furcal, Kent, Drew around his 3 spot
Then Maddux, Anderson and Betemit provided the final push to make the 2006 Dodgers as versatile as we were that decade.
They just collapsed in the Mets series.... After that 4 home run into an extra inning walkoff game to pass the Padres. They had all the momentum going into October. 2008 was Manny tearing up, Loney, Ethier & Kemp developing. He was already gone in 2009.
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.
I’m glad someone else remembers that’s game. Played it countless hours with my friends. Good times
@@ryansilvia6180 Man, great times.
Him and Pudge Rodriguez :-)
Nomar, my favorite player ever.
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.
Nomar easily was better than Jeter in their primes.
Nomar forever.
nomar’s heart & soul of redsox. he’s a hero forever in my heart.
Favorite baseball player. Got me in baseball
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!
The two grand slam game is legendary
Ya sad his wrist hurt him
@@erics2739 dude deserved a ring more than any Red Sox player since Ted Williams.
@@erics2739 his wrist didn’t hurt him he hurt his wrist 😂
@@SSJRadioBluth Wed Tilliams
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
Yaz's rookie season wasn't all that good, he only became great starting in 1963
How can you forget Ted Williams here?
You were not a kid when he played for the soxs man he is my all time favorite player and in 29 years old so don't know what your talking about
He's my favorite player all-time in my decades of baseball fandom
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.
The fact he never won mvp still amazes me he batted 372 one year in 140 games and didn't win mvp ok
The steroid era was bonkers. That year Manny hit .351 with 38 HR (with CLE), Carlos Delgado hit .344 with 41 HR. The MVP winner was Jason Giambi with .333/.476/.647 with 43 HR. Also, don't forget in the NL Todd Helton hit .372 with 42, Vlad Guerrero hit .345 with 44 HR and Moises Alou finished 20th in MVP voting with .355 and 30 HR. Offense was absolutely ridiculous at the time. When 10 guys per league are putting up numbers that would MVP worthy in other eras, a lot of guys with crazy seasons aren't going to win it.
@@Il_Exile_lI I miss the steroid era, it was objectively more entertaining
Nice video showing highlights of Nomar Garciaparra in a Red Sox uniform!!! He was a great Red Sox player!!!
Nomah!
So he had 178 hr with Sox but only 69 RBI - quite a incredible accomplishment - 6:14
Must have gotten injured on the HR trot 109 times
Lol @ both comments XD
69 lol
I was sitting on leftfeid side seats,when Nomar hit his first c areer HR. What a thrill as a REDSOX fan..
NOMAR my GUY!!!
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.
Memories!
he 's my favorite player
We need a defensive highlight video!
I'm from Makati city Philippines 🇵🇭 onnninn LNG and s fan of Nomar,,
You won in the 1918 pandemic. Don’t give up the pandemic winning streak!
And this is why I’m happy I have his signature
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.
He had mvp numbers for 7 years. Never got respect for those rewards when he was batting 340 plus
Nomar Garciaparra was much better than Manny Ramírez and Big Papi
NOMAH!!
Real baseball ⚾️😎 player ...from beginning, til end #excellence
Nomar>Jeter
Injuries derailed this guy and I will die on this hill
This is my favorite player
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
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
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
Joe Buck, that's the left field line, not right field
Typical Joe buck lmao
Buck is the worst
Great player!
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 can tell you still don't play baseball
6:14
I think there's a 0 missing at the end of those 69 RBIs. Lol
Nice
NOMAH BABY!!
Blood Related to Nomar GarciaParra! My mother was Dr. Josefa Parra Levin! My name is Alexander Gregory Levin! Stay in touch!
Was a top five player in the AL when with the Sox
Let’s beat The New York Yankees big time this year.
Yankees suck!
6:16 career 69 RBI’s?
Him and Mo were my favorites growing up
Since the 80's it was Clemens and Boggs( have his rookie card ) for me. I do have mo and nomar rookie cards. And ofc. Papi and manny for the 2000's. Oh and pedroia. Red Sox have had a lot of memorable players.
Mo who, Mohammad?
@@omegamanGXE bro…Mo Vaughn…aka the hit dog.
He. Just. Couldn't. Stay. Healthy.
After 2001 your right
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.
Bogey is good but he’s not Nomar at his peak
Injuries derailed what was going to be a 1st ballot HOF career.
If the defense is stable, the offense tends to be better
Nomar was a gold glove caliber SS.
178 HR, but only 69 (nice) RBI? Weak.
Lol
They fucked up.
Just the 3 grand slam they show make it b inaccurate. Lol
I don't think Nomar had 69 RBIs
Why MLB THE SHOW(GAME) still doesn't add him to the Legend player ?
1 thumb down as of 6/9/20..must be a Yankees fan lol
3 now as of 3/2021
he was gonna be that guy.....over jeter......im telling u
Couldn’t get his career RBI total right for a published video? I think he had more than that 😂 6:17
More like nomaw
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.
Does (or will) he have his number retired with Boston ?
No never
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
