Snagging THREE HOME RUN BALLS at Great American Ball Park!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 вер 2024
- BEST. DAY. EVER. I got 20 baseballs before the game and THREE home runs during the game including Alex Blandino's 1st career homer. After the game I gave that ball to him and got a signed bat in exchange. If you've ever wondered what happens when you catch a milestone home run and the player wants it for himself, this is the video for you. I dealt with stadium security and various Reds officials. It was insane, and I'm so glad to be able to share the experience with everyone.
As I mentioned, here's the video of my baseball bat collection:

Also, for those who don't know, every baseball that I snag this season is raising money for a children's baseball charity called Pitch In For Baseball. Here's a direct link to my fundraiser:

This video was filmed on May 1, 2018. Thanks for watching!
I don’t understand the hate Zack gets over this. For him to ask to be the one to hand it back to the player, is NOT unreasonable ! He doesn’t put these on eBay and has every right to hand it to the player directly. Like Zack said, security wants to be the one to take credit for “getting the ball”, but that’s BS ! Fans don’t have to give the ball back at all. I agree with Zack 100% here and if the player isn’t willing to meet and thank the fan for returning the ball, then F them !, they don’t deserve to get it back. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I totally agree.
Randy Porter totally agree
I agree
I concur !
D. sano people are mad there working minimum wage at McDonald’s and this dude is out here living his dream
If Zach was in a 100 meter race and there was a baseball at the end, he would win the race
So true
He would break usain bolts record for a home run ball
Sus
@@ItzLincoln_how is that sus 💀
*Good job standing your ground with security*
More like the other fans they are a holes
Yeah
for real. most fans would’ve been shaking in their boots from security. funny easily they gave in lol.
he was only able to because he's white
That security was really trying to take advantage of you. Good on you for using the ball to create a great moment you'll never forget. Some may call it a dick move, I disagree completely. You earned that ball and you earned that experience in meeting Alex.
I agree completely
Go Cubs!
Go cubs
No doubt! The dicks are the ones yelling at Zach! Like, stfu, lol
Lmao where are the cubs going? 🤣 3rd place? 💀
All this negativity toward Zack and for what? Zack is living his best life, traveling the world watching baseball! While the haters are down here in the comments section pursuing nothing but negativity. Watch more than a minute of his videos and witness him handing balls to kids and adults alike. Thank you Zack. Living vicariously through you and grateful to partake in the fun! Cheers.
Idk but if I was someone I would probably do the same thing
This is gonna go down as one of the best videos youve ever posted. Quality shots and lots of baseballs :)
4:27 he kindly gives the ball to that kid, and then at 4:38 the kid thanks Zach by giving the middle finger to the him and/or the camera. Just awful
Yeah I saw that he tried to hide it
Zack: Way to negotiate with security! This is a good lesson for all in not selling yourself cheap, ever, to anyone! Security was trying to lowball you, Shame on them.
I'm glad you stayed firm with your request. Players don't care, they just want the ball. Security just doesn't wanna ask if they don't have to.
4:40 you got flipped off by the kid next to you 😂😂😂😂
Krenshaw Starks that kid salty😂
No he didn’t
Heart say yes he did if you look on the side of him
I guess one of the things that makes these videos so addicting and exciting is that Zack still gets excited like it's the first time he ever caught a ball. It cracks me up how security expects a fan to just roll over and had over the ball like no big deal.
The security guard rubbed me the wrong way when he said "oh he's going to get the ball" like if you didn't want to give it up they would forcefully take it from you. But i don't know
miah022 right he got mike trouts 1st and Aroids 3000* if Zach can arrange to meet them
Spotted Cow love that you said A-roid 😂
Agreed! I instantly got mad!
Why does everyone hate this guy, some people have luck, and also it’s not like he’s taking balls from kids, he’s getting them fair and square. If he finds happiness in getting baseballs from mlb games that’s his thing, not like he’s doing horrible things to their world, it’s not greed, all luck and skill, deal with it. Btw, when he does take a ball from someone, they’re cool wit it, stop hating because you can’t hate baseballs
And he gives plenty of baseball to little kids
Indieson Gaming yea ikr he gives half of them to kids
Who hates him?
Man Zack.. at 11:09 I thought you would’ve responded back to that guy for being rude but man you got a lot of patience. Class act!
Yup if I was there I would have told him to shut up
i wouild have given him the wrong ball, and then hooked up with the player later.
Anyone else see the kid flip off the camera at 4:40 😂
Now I did
Damn good eye. Lol
Lol
Bro I don’t have the balls to say that to security. Good for you for being strong. Much respect!
This is by far the most entertaining video you've done in a while! Great job and congrats on the 3 gamer home runs! Also, congrats on how you handled security and how you did not even engage that jerk-a$$ fan who yelled at you.
"We can get you a autograph ball"
"I already have enough balls" lol
That’s what she said lol 😂
Hey Zack My Uncle is the assistant coach for North Eastern college. On Friday I went to see North Eastern play the Red Sox in jet blue park and after the game I went over to the Red Sox dugout and as the ball boy was walking out he toss me the ball. That was my first ever ball. What I’m saying is you inspire me so much to go to every baseball game I can and get every ball I can try to get.
11:32 “you guys this teams sucks”-drunk reds fan🤣🤣🤣
kikos102 LOL
Love how you assert yourself with confidence and clarity.
This has GOT to be the best video you've ever posted. From the absolutely stunning number of baseballs you snagged during BP to the delicious looking food and to the sheer awesomeness of snagging 3 game home run balls, that's just unbelievable. Keep up the good work Zack, and can't wait till you reach 1 million subs.
If you guys dont like what hes doing dont watch his videos simple as that!
Still watch it they're giving him money! 💸
7:14
I'm not seeing thick french fries here, I'm seeing something else THICC
HAHA
You could say that again
3:47 the guy wanted the ball
This is definitely one of your best video!
Thanks for taking us with you in this amazing journey!
That is still Blandino's only home run. So if he never plays in the majors again, that ball will be really, really special.
Well, now he's back, but yeah, crazy that its still his only one.
11:06 7:25 look right of the screen
???
I swear this guys a child stuck in a mans body 🤣😭
This was his hobby and he made it into his job. He’s living his dream essentially just by posting videos of it. He’d be doing it regardless.
Your videos got me into baseball. I really like the pace and how you edit the videos. I love that you always visit food stalls. And good job powering through even though people for some reason get so offended over what you do. Keep on making great and unique content
Dear Jett Bandy,
If you're reading this, please respond!
Thanks!
Love that he gave the balls to the worker to give to kids. Nice vid Zach
Why does this guy get so much hate?? I’ve never understood it, if you don’t like what he does then don’t watch 🤷♂️🤦♂️ literally giving someone crap because they’re living life having fun and enjoying America’s pastime....
He gets hate because hes an asshole. He leveraged an autograph and meet out of Blandino with a pretty personal and important moment to the player. Doesn't matter if he's "living life having fun enjoying americas pastime" when he does it at the expense of another he looks like a fucking douche. Love his videos, love baseball but his move was douchey and the only reason you posted that comment is because everyone made their opinions about it clear already.
Lord Baphomel I don’t see the problem with it, he caught the ball, he paid for the seat tickets, and any ball that comes into the stands and is picked up by a person is now that persons property, nothing wrong with him wanting something back for it, and his request wasn’t really that bad, and I don’t understand the hate that he gets, any kid that’s around him gets a ball most of the time and that wouldn’t with anyone else. Btw I hate baseball and don’t know this guy or any of the players I’m just giving my 2 cents
Lord Baphomel if he’s such an asshole, then don’t watch him 🤷♂️
@@aaronanaya2814 being an asshole has no bearing on whether or not you wathh a person's video. Take off. And he'd still be an asshole if 0 people watched them.
@@mikehoncho658 Negative. Just because the ball is hit in the crowd doesn't mean it's his property. I'm not sure where you get that but they give balls out of courtesy and if they want them back it's theirs, they paid for it. Japan is a prime example of this, after home runs security takes the balls. By your logic I could walk in a resturaunts and order food and just take the plates because they brought them to my table.
I’m a huge fan of the Reds up in Cincinnati. I live in KY. So about 45 mins to 1 hr from where I am.
Negotiation 101. Zach had the leverage, crafted a strong negotiation plan, and executed it well. Love it.
Zack, what a freakin video! I saw you uploaded it at work and couldn’t wait to get home to watch it. What a day 😂😎
You robbed that kid in the Weeks shirt like 5 times lol
That poor kid in the Rickie Weeks shirt😂😂
and player not willing to accommodate this request doesn't really want his ball lol. and yes, I am watching this video like 4 years later, because I started following and it got suggested. Love this channel! And come to ATL!
Braves are goated
i love how the fireworks begin the second you show all 3 baseballs...Great American Ballpark salutes you my friend...this was TRULY an EPIC EPIC day! hats off..
"Oh, he'll get it." Can't believe that guy would say that. Terrible form. MLB strongarming fans. Like it's a casino and they're gonna take you in the back and rough you up to get what they want! (He also talked about the player getting the ball "back." Remember, fans, if you catch a ball, it's YOURS, so you're doing a nice thing to give it to a player if he wants it, you're not giving him "back" anything.)
He probably has so much balls I think he should of let some of the other people have one or two!!

SerGon23 ok
So many balls.
Fix your grammar!
Marshal Putnam he does
People saying that he’s so disrespectful obviously don’t know what respect is, he was the opposite of disrespectful
Zac being a reds fan this is my favorite video you’ve done that I’ve seen at least
All I know is if I bring my glove to a stadium hopeful to catch a ball and I see Zack hample there I know there is no point
Been in that stadium 5 times. It is great!! Workers are nice ad so are the fans!
Nachos is a must in st louis. I would die for them
1:19 R.I.P Avicii
9 that reds kid in the jersey was mad 3:29
You definitely made the right choice. Waiting for the game to be over instead of just giving the ball right away to the security. Plus, you even got a bat signed by Alex, so that’s really cool!
A zack can you do a Watch with Zack game at Kauffman Stadium with me
Tyler Barnes Check this part on his website and afterwards, send him an email. He only scheduled Watch with Zack games if you do it via email.

I would be happy getting 1 ball
Jashan Sidhu me too
Jashan Sidhu same i never got one
Jashan Sidhu when I caught my first home run ball I was going crazy
Hey zack I have a question... if u were to go to a game and batting practice was rained out, and no players came out at all, but the game was still expected to be on, but right before the game started they ppd it, would it count as a game? Would the streak end?
"Just another day at the ballpark." Awesome job Zack! I'll even let you use that as the title of your next book.
Zack: I'll make sure he gets the ball
Security: oh he'll get it
4:39 guy in red flips off zack
Yea lol!
Roger Rosa he look like he’s 13
Zack tossed him a baseball seconds earlier. What an ungrateful prick.
One like= the number of balls you’ll catch at your next game
I love Zach hample keep up the good work
U seem like like the kid that always loved baseball, but really sucked at it
You seem You've always have been a troll but suck at being a troll
So true but you gotta love his vids
Darren Hughes I do
SG Nation lmfao
SG Nation he played in college so I don’t think he sucked
GABP is a great ballpark, maybe my favorite, I'm a reds fan yeah I'm biased but it's very nice
if I caught 20 balls during BP and 3 HOMERUN balls AND a autographed bat I would literally probably have a heart attack
Skinny Daddy Mc Lovin plus getting a chance to meet one of the players
I did the first pitch at the Cincinnati reds stadium when the went against the pirates and I got to keep the ball and Brandon Phillips signed the ball for me
He snatched the ball from the guy that had 23 on his shirt so many times😂
Quise Pope facts
Legend. Also, great job on haggling with security. Brilliant
Where do you keep the baseballs when your at the game
In his bag
8:23 did that guy give you the finger
Aiden Edwards he told Zach that you have two ball
How do you get in the park so early with nobody there??
he gets 24 balls in one game!!!! i have never got one!!!!😂😂😂
It's because the players know him well and he is kind of famous :/
Thanks for what you are doing for baseball. Your videos are FANTASTIC!
Zack fantastic video, I really enjoyed it. My family and I were at Great American Ball Park a few weeks ago, it is a beautiful stadium. Thanks again, you have a new subscriber!
If you are all just gonna give hate just don't comment
If you ever go back to great American ball park, I used to live their, I would recommend LaRosa's, best pizza ever.
That security guy was really rude at first
The fireworks and the lights went so well with zack’s blandino catch.
I’ve always been wanting to get a home run ball! And I just wanna say that it’s amazing that you catch almost 30 Major League baseballs in one game.🎉
I miss baseball.
Congrats zack, way to wait out the security guard there👏
went to my first live baseball game 7 years ago, still haven't caught one. But I still remember the girl next to me at my first game caught 2, and I think she let me have one of them. But my face almost caught a hockey puck at a hockey game once. I got to keep it as an apology
2:55 I love it seeing some of the players are fans of Zack
Dude, you're like a crafty veteran out there in the stands knowing how to read the ball and maneuver through the bleachers lol.
8:24 that dude was mad😂
Great american hasn't been full since 4 years ago
im ready to drive to cinci to get that fry box, its only 800 miles away
Go to 4:40 and you'll see the kid in the background flip the camera off right after he gave him the ball lol
dalton b lmao
Good catch lol... What a bitch boy... If your gonna do it then don't try n hide it.. Or dont do it... Smh 🤦🏻♂️ 😂 😂
I live about 45 mins from the reds stadium and I just love the stadium
Same
Where are u at
Same here
Same
Give those kids one bro be nice
*BaLl HoG*
Zack hamble don't worry about all the hate. Just keep doing what u love and I love ur baseball vids and keep up the good content
Jett is such a nice guy, last season in AAA he was so cool to me, gave me a broken bat, signed it, and I bought another one and he signed that one, was so cool that towards the end of the season that he started to remember me and recognize me!
Why did you comment the same thing twice. I do agree, Jet seems really nice.
Andrew Foster huh not sure, I’ve been having issues with comments on a lot of stuff lately. Where it’ll double comment.
so they can take by force a ball you caught if you decide to keep it, thats not right?
I LOOOOVEEE THAT T-SHIRT, btw a dominican is writing this!
Who else wonders where he puts his baseballs
charlie seiler he puts them in empty trash cans. He has like 5 empty trash cans full
CoreyThe Rocket “empty trash cans full?”
Any one watching after the corona virus canceled opening day
Katie Williams Me
anyone care
Dude that’s amazing how you got that many!
Damn zack those veins are popping
Great content Zack, keep it up.
8:22dude flipped you off but with 2 fingers
Haha he was lowkey bitter af
Who did see the middle finger from the boy behind him at 4:40 then LIKE
Somehow your videos are really entertaining.
I love watching these videos over the offseason as a way to hold me over until opening day. Especially the Reds videos as being a Reds fan, I love to see the beautiful ballpark that I have the privilege of attending over the season. Zack has made me want to get into ball hawking and I am so excited for this next season and to see how many balls I can come up with by the end of the season.
Let’s go Reds Let’s go. Who Dey Bengals. Who’s gonna beat dem Bengals... NOBODY!!!NOBODY!!!
