For a generation of Red Sox fans, Nomar Garciaparra helped to define baseball in Boston. Yet the retired shortstop is now an analyst for SportsNet LA, and his prediction in the Dodgers-Red Sox World Series might not thrill his old fans.
“This is a good dream,” Garciaparra said in a recent interview on AM 570 LA Sports. “You’ve got two great teams going at it. I think you want to see the two best teams throughout the season playing in the World Series.”
Garciaparra, now 45, played in Boston from 1996-2004, and Los Angeles from 2006-2008.
