Nomar went to St. John Bosco High School, becoming a baseball star such that he was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers out of the high school, but after matriculation he enrolled at Georgia Tech University, where he played for the university baseball team, which reached the College World Series title game, however, they lost to the Oklahoma University.

In the 1994 MLB Draft he was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the first round; however, he first played in the minor leagues seasons, before making his debut for the major league squad in 1996 against the Oakland Athletics.
