It has been nearly five years since Nomar Garciaparra played at Fenway Park, his home from 1996-2004. Garciaparra became one of the most popular players in Sox history before they traded him to the Cubs in ’04. He’ll come to Fenway as a visitor for the first time today as a member of the Athletics.
I’ll be hoping Mr. Mia Hamm falls flat on his ass.
