It's nice to see Nomar back to his game and playing in an environment he seems fit to be in. He never seemed at home in Boston, all the while being a great ball player. And healthy, of course.
My only regret of the Red Sox winning it all in 2004 was he wasnt on the team at the end. He deserved it, he gave his heart and soul to the team and the fans for years here. When the Red Sox were in the tank in the late 90's, he and Pedro Martinez carried those teams to heights they honestly had no business acheiving (ALCS in 1999, for example).
Pedro was an absolute force and Nomar was running around hitting .370 or something ungodly like that. Hope his good fortunes continue!
