Bahahaha. I freaking love Fenway Chris! What an absolute legend! "give it away to a smokeshow later" My spirit animal. I've even grown my hair out like him.
Loved this! My wife and I have been travelling from London to see the Dbacks for 13 years now, recently racking up our 73rd game. In all that time, we've never caught a single foul ball, but a young 10 year old kid sitting next to us that got two from a ball-boy insisted on giving us one......we just love Chase!
@@Czwascz Hi Chris....I've always loved baseball, must be from my Dad who used to watch and play as a kid with US GI's who guarded POW's near where he lived in south-west London during WW2. Saw my first games at Wrigley Field and Comisky Field in the 80's but never "chose" a team. Came close with the White Sox though! Started going on vacation to Az in 2007, saw our first games with RJ/BW pitching and settled on the Dbacks. Been coming back to Az a couple of times a year since.
@@steveyajay Oh that was never going to happen. We went and saw a game at Dodgers Stadium as neutrals a few years back when my son and daughter were 14 and 12, and a car load of gangbangers nearly ran us over in the parking lot. I shouted out a good old English cuss word and the 5 of them wanted to fight us! It was hilarious seeing them look confused when I hurled a load of abuse in my London accent and my two young kids shouted "come one, let's ave' it"! They backed off, but I did breath a sigh of relief. Horrible fans the Dodgers and I've seen that at Chase Field with LA fans too. Don't have an issue with the Giants, and we do want to make it up there for a game sometime soon!
@@bobball9954 As an American and a Californian, I’m sorry that you and your family had that awful experience. We’d love to have you up here in the city for a game. I might be bias, but I think AT&T Park (yes I know it’s Oracle now but I can’t get used it lol) is one of the greatest ball parks on the planet!
Congrats on the home run at the Trop last night. I knew you were gonna be there and went into the MLB app and rewatched all the home runs from the game and was glad to see you catch one.
Always is fun to see people who have unique things like rubber band balls and collections like that- and have really enjoyed watching you and Fenway Chris have a blast this season and get around to all the parks you can get to this year- hope you get to all 30- and all! Great to see teams like the D-Backs be generous with baseballs and all and that is some cool access you had for the game!
Was at the Saturday game and saw Albert knock the two and almost 3rd out plus the near steal. Was quite a game and had hoped to see you at the game! game! You do a lot for the game and get the kids and future of baseball energized with your enthusiasm, knowledge and spirit of the game!!! Keeping up and love the channel! Hope you are in town in March for Cactus League!
I asked for you to do another rubberband ball in the park on some video from a while ago, and honestly, this kind of fulfills those feels! Benji is balling with that ball and I am happy you got to show it off with him. I still have to say, travel again with your personal rubberband ball at some point if life allows it!
Zack today (August 19th) is the six year anniversary of our first ever interaction. I tweeted at you six years ago today telling you that I just started watching your videos and was enjoying them. Time flies!
Definitely count ‘em zack! It speaks volumes to your success and that’s because of your numbers and the players didn’t have to toss up to you so definitely count ‘em great video as always brother!
Zack: “ As promised way at the start of the video, keep watching, cause we’re gonna kick it back outside the stadium for more rubber band ball action RIGHT NOW” My Phone: Target ad 😆
THESE ARE THE DAYS DREAMS ARE MADE OF! 🤩Wonderful to see the DIAMONDBACKS embracing the fan experience🏆And Z is the best ambassador there is!🎅 Thanks for bringing us along on the smoke show!🥳💨 (Don't let Fenway book the 🚝!)
Hell yeah those balls count. Your early access is a result of becoming popular as a result of years of traveling and collecting all those balls in the past
The Charlie Sheen method of getting batting practice balls. Be the only person there to retrieve the baseballs. At some point Zack you should only count balls you get during the game. Looking forward to watching you catch your 100th home run ball on your channel.
It's a shame to see such a small crowd at a MLB game. Yes, I understand it was a day game, and school is back in session, but yesterday's Cardinals game in St. Louis, a Thursday 12:15pm game against the Rockies, the game Albert Pujols hit a grand slam for career homerun #690, was a packed house as usual, and school is back in session here too. But that's just how we do it here in St. Louis. We pack Busch Stadium every game, no matter if it's a Thursday day game during school season, or a Friday/Saturday night game. I love it.
You should totally count these guilt-free. You earned this early access with years of hard work building your channel and becoming known. Yes count them all. I want to live to see you get 20,000.
Zack... I think you should definitely count those... it makes up for all the times when it is waaay too crowded for you, or potentially rainy days when teams cancel BP, or other such occurrences. Great video, as usual.
I feel only balls obtained when gates are open should count. Being able to predict where balls will fly and catch them with all the competition is what makes Zack so impressive.
You have to count them you never not counted them before it just makes up the tough days where it’s crowded and you still give most to all away so you’re still doing the good thing afterwards. God bless
of course you count it. you worked so hard to develop yourself to get special entrances. you grinded it out year over year. Enjoy it that your "hands ain't so greasy, BUT THE MOTOR PURRRRS"'
Zack Why wouldn’t you count them? It’s really cool that you shared the love and gave them to other fans. What’s more cool is your interaction with the players!!! What other professional sport can you do that? Be safe. Sag Harbor
The balls you get during early access definitely shouldn't count towards your lifetime stats. If you are the only one capable of getting to the balls, then there's no challenge, which is what makes your accomplishments so incredible... Edit to add- If balls during Spring Training don't count, then these surely shouldn't count. The ones at spring training actually take effort to get..
Hey Zack, the first guy who threw you a ball is Scott Bonnett the Pirates Clubhouse guy. thought maybe you'd be interested in knowing that. great video.
😂 just the other day at, Great American Ball Park, a fellow ballhawk said they were going to try to reach “Zack Hample numbers”….I just told him good luck 👍🏻
Zach. In 2003 I played for cherryville post 100 legion team an MB played for Caldwell county. Needless to say we beat them an went on too the world series in OK
Zack, you should do a "ball-a-thon" where people can pledge money to your favorite charity for every ball you get each season. If you're catching ~500 balls a season people can donate anywhere from 1c to $10+ for each ball. Could give a greater purpose to your pursuit and make players more supportive of your mission. Imagine 1000+ people pledging 10c per ball. That's $50k!

Love the long videos Zack thank you for giving us great entertainment
Thanks and I'm glad because I have some very long ones on the way.
The baseballs you get in an empty stadium should count more than Richard Bleier toss ups😂

I see Fenway Chris picking up 10s in Arizona, Nice!

Impressing Bumgarner with your knuckleball simply has to be a euphemism for something or other.
That’s really cool how you meet so many different players
Thanks, I think so too. :)
And a “grown up” gets a ball! Just commented on the last video for support of the older fans of you! You made my day! Lol
Glad to hear it!
Another Zack vid, another Gem!
Thanks, E!
Count the easy access baseballs. They're apart of your story..you wouldn't have easy access without years of dedication built up, you've earned them.
Count them all and get in as early as you can and enjoy it all!!!
Thanks for being among the first to weigh in on this.
Hey Zack! You’re keeping me sane while I’m sick.
I'm here for you.
Hope you get better! My prayers go out to you! 🙏

They are baseballs you got them you count them . Great content once again .
Great to see you @ the TROP last night! Good Luck tonight
Thanks!
Awesome video, Zack. Cool that the Dbacks let you and Chris in early before the general public.
Thanks, Aidan!
I think you should count the baseballs with early access. In my mind, you put in the work over the years to earn that early access to get more balls.
It's a shame to see such a small crowd at a MLB game. Yes, I understand it was a day game, and school is back in session, but yesterday's Cardinals game in St. Louis, a Thursday 12:15pm game against the Rockies, the game Albert Pujols hit a grand slam for career homerun #690, was a packed house as usual, and school is back in session here too. But that's just how we do it here in St. Louis. We pack Busch Stadium every game, no matter if it's a Thursday day game during school season, or a Friday/Saturday night game. I love it.
