"As Nomar Garciaparra walked out of the dugout before last night's game, his hand raised to greet the fans, everyone in Fenway Park stood. They cheered as he walked toward a grouping of Red Sox representatives and his family behind home plate, where he embraced Johnny Pesky. They cheered again after team president Larry Lucchino unveiled two seats as a gift for Garciaparra. He stepped to the microphone and thanked the fans. Then he told them that he loved them. "I don't know how I can really express, put into words, just how grateful I am,'' Garciaparra said earlier in the afternoon. "I never had a chance to just tell them thank you, tell them thank you and that I love them. I don't know if the words are going to come out as eloquently that way or not today, but that's really what it means to me.''" http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2010/05/06/memories_cascade_on_nomars_night/
