What happens THREE HOURS before game time at Dodger Stadium?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- If you have Dodgers season tickets, you can enter the stadium three hours early, and if you're friends with season ticket holders, they can bring you in as a guest. It's a pretty sweet deal here in Los Angeles, and I wish every MLB team did this. (The Yankees, for example, open just 90 minutes before game time for everyone, so you can't see Aaron Judge or Giancarlo Stanton take batting practice, but I digress.)
Anyway, there's all kinds of interesting stuff that takes place before the game starts, and of course there are opportunities to catch baseballs -- so that's what I did. I got a couple from the Dodgers in the Home Run Seats, and then I got two more from the Arizona Diamondbacks on the 1st base side.
Batting practice was a struggle for me, and I somehow missed a Mookie Betts home run during the game, but hey, at least I was in a section with all-inclusive/unlimited food so I got to eat my sorrows away. But no, really, it was a fun day all around, and Madison Bumgarner pitched a gem.

This video was filmed on September 21, 2022 by "Fenway Chris" (@yonnernyc on Instagram) and it was edited by a gentleman named Brian (@doubleueyett on UA-cam). Thanks for watching!
I love how you instantly ran to fetch the ball that kid threw. Just total kindness trying to make that kids day
Thanks. I appreciated his instinct to chuck it. That's such a natural thing to do and I got some free exercise out of it. :)
Thanks Zack for that autograph on the Monday game. That was the best gift in my life. My 16th birthday is one I will never forget
@@PositiveRaven the Philly captain is garbage and is toxic
Zacktoid: (A factoid about baseball.)
I first went to Dodger stadium to see my Padres play the Dodgers in about 1975. This was before you were born! I think it was Randy Jones pitching for the Pads and I think we sat on benches!
Fun! And that's a great new word. Merriam-Webster, take notice!
Great guy Zach! Totally for the kids and everyone at the game. Great hustle to get his ball back love the video!
Chris needed to sneek out a few beers in his camera bag for the hotel
@@tracycollins6385 heck yeah he does haha
So…..was the cheesecake as good as it looked? Inquiring minds……..
YES!!
I see the Dasani with out the label Zack ! Your not fooling me. 10:07 in the video
He buys the Dasani, dumps out the water and fills it up at the fountain. I thought that too originally.
@@FenwayChris I didn't buy it. It was free in the Home Run Seats!
It was filled with fountain water. I dumped that shit out as soon as I opened it.
When I saw you give that baseball to that boy in the wheelchair, it melted my heart. I never understood the hate you get from people, they should do their research.
next year give balls to whoever is behind you except the regulars or a substitute ball for gamers
Thanks but it's much easier to just be an idiot and believe whatever you're told.
At the end of the video when you were summarizing your night I couldn't help but notice the irony in the shirt you wore. "Everything Happens For A Reason...". It doesn't remove the disappointment from your night, but the Dodger fan with the Betts jersey was extremely happy to get that HR ball!
Haha, yup. The t-shirt knows what's up.
the d'backs have some fine young pitching FOR THE FUTURE !!!!!!
Great video, Zack! Love your vids, I'll never understand why people think that you're a bad person, you are always generous! Lots of support from a Phillies fan!
Adults r haters cuz he robs em. Look at the 2 guys in grand slam video. They just left in discust the gm
@@tracycollins6385 No no, THIS is robbery: sports.yahoo.com/dirtbag-fan-steals-home-run-123243193.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAACko89uniKB-eNkzcwHag5M7gUg8ghRI-DsNdakhMHtWWwgy8sZsY19eWFmM4S3R3SAn06xLtHbvd6WyXVaNMZWZntqUZzJugLdYQPflWZ5Pv7o3hCYBGhyai2b-Fo0p_ksQ3sm8HN-Ti0mKzsNnLXaCtsRSMH8tDbK3SzRRRDNi
Thanks! Lots of idiots out there who get off on lies and drama.
Hey fuck those people man do what u do. U like it other people like it. Lot of hate in the world. They Hate to see people do good and what u like to do.
Wearing a Mookie jersey catching a Mookie home run. Billion to One odds of that happening. Loved watching it.
You think that only 1 in every billion fans wears a Mookie jersey at Dodger Stadium?
@@zackhample I might have an extra zero but i'm not far off. You're on top of ball hawk mountain and you have 55 home runs caught on the fly out of 88 home runs. Clean catch in crowded LA stands wearing the players jersey? Ridiculous odds. If you want to prove to me anything is possible go buy a Trout jersey and catch one of his home runs in 2023. I will react like a caveman who just seen fire for the first time if you pull it off. Just weird animal noises while i point in amazement.
Love u zack thanks for tanking that pic with me at that game it means a lot
Bro instantly threw the ball Zack gave to him 😂. Good job getting it back
:)
Hey Zack your in my hometown. I'm glad to see you hooking up a dodger fan with a baseball thank you much respect and love. Let's go dodgers...let's go yankees. Have a good time in l.a. God bless.
Thanks! It was great to be there.
I feel for you bro.
Man I have to go get food after watching you guys eating.
Do it!
Hey zack your my favourite UA-camr could I get a reply hello?
hello
-zack
Hello!
Hi Zack I don’t know if you know but every time I see a new video I’m always so happy and it’s probably the same for other love your videos Zack ❤
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that.
I love Dodger stadium!
Go Dodgers!
Will you be at alds gm 1 at Yankee stadium
Eh. I have no postseason plans for now.
I read somewhere that they will let kids come early during the batting practice and chase after balls. Is that true? We bought tickets for my son to see his first game on his birthday and it would be so special to do something like that!
Zack you should make a compilation video of you and Fenway Chris being best frenemies.
I like this idea.
Ha, maybe!
@@zackhample do it! It would make a good video!
Oh dear god. 🤦🏻♂️
@@FenwayChris it would be video of the year. I already made a short compilation of funny moments of you on Zack’s channel at one point.
Love your vids zack. To all zacks haters that have no life watch 2:09-2:35.
Thanks. :)
Great video! Should have run the bases afterwards! Haha!
I was watching a guy on UA-cam from Philly and he claims your knocking over young kids and old men to catch balls. I haven't seen any of this in your videos. Personally I don't count toss ups only balls hit in the stands during the game. My total since I really started to count since 2012 is 212 caught foul or home runs at Tropicana Field, Camden Yards, Petco and Wrigley Field.
Ask this idiot if he has any video evidence of me doing that. (I can already answer that question: he doesn't because it has never happened.)
First
What song is it that Dieter is playing (7:20) before "Get Lucky"?
Another day another Zack video lets go!
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO
That boy can throw!
Love your Videos can’t wait to see where you go during the playoffs
Thanks!
These videos always makes me laugh lol thanks for sharing!
Zack Hample I Have a question. did you went to Petco park then came back to Dodgers Stadium?
Correct.
The catcher that threw you a ball wasn’t Steven he was out the seris because his baby was born
Wow that’s amazing❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
Thanks for including us in the fun Z! You and Fenway Chris are honorary Angelenos! 🎉 😇 Great work as always, and congrats on an amazing feat to get to all 30 🏟!! 🤩🥳
Dodger Dog Chris!
Thanks for the warm welcome, as always, and for bringing some extra fun/joy to my day and the video.
@@zackhample 🤡🤩
3 hours before a game your locked out of a parking lot.
Hey Zack great video keep up the great work what is the life time baseball number of how many balls you have catched I always forget lol
Thanks. Take a look at the last 10 seconds of the video for the answer.
Zack, are you going to be posting regular season videos into the post season? I think this just looking at the date of this one.
Yes. I still have a few more.
FYI Zack the guy in the Wheelchair gave you a 'Thank You' in sign language the second time you handed him the ball. My son is Autistic and he knows ten times more signs then me. Have suggestion, you should learn the Sign for thanks and you are welcome, really easy.
Keep up your videos, and I used to work at a summer camp near the camp you went to in Ontario.
Thanks and I know. I worked at a school for deaf children for a few months and got pretty good at ASL at the time.
@@zackhample so you are better than I am for sure..
I turned my buddy from Brooklyn now living in L.A. on to your videos he gave it 2 thumbs up! And is a huge Mattingly fan was so happy watching him speak with you.
Keep it up!
Love to see zack back at dodger stadium
Zack! Why are you drinking a DASANI?!? What happened to #notdasani !! Jk jk I only noticed that you had a bottle with no label and there was a shot of someone else with the same bottle but except it was a regular salty Dasani water 😂😂😂 I still love you & your videos just wanted to point that out when I watched this LOL
I dumped it out, peeled off the label, and filled it back up at a water fountain.
I have only been to one mlb game and watched the rest on tv that’s what happens when you live in Australia the game Yankees vs baltormoire that was in 2018
La needs Trevor Bauer
Oh man, so far away!
⚾ We need to start a GoFundMe page so this dude so he can GET PROFESSIONAL HELP for his ADDICTION. ⚾
Where do I donate?
You can just Venmo me direectly.
@@zackhample Nice !
Zach what are you doing in the offseason
complain when they dont throw you a ball?
The rogue glove at 7:38 is hilarious
the day is young unlike you was funny
Great video. Now it’s time to procrastinate on homework.
Haha, thanks!
If Aaron Judge hit his 62home run at dodger Stadium you would’ve caught it
awesome video thanks for beings action entire season
:)
You go Zachary Ben Hample!!!
Go for 15K?
Ha, thanks.
does bobby go to games stil?
2:13 savage
That was amazing.
Zach, does Dogerfilms still go to games or does he just focus on his softball UA-cam channel?
Where’s dodger films
I was the first like!
No mookie ball but some good videos from the west coast...thanks... they got beat down in Atlanta but go mets....
Jesus all the kids just yelling “BALL! BALL! BALL!”---
moneyball steve… wow haven’t heard that name in YEARS
How do you get access to the stadium 3 hours before Gametime? That’s so cool!
Yes Zack!
Zack ate a salad!
Hey Zack, I love your videos. It's always been my dream to meet you in person, but I just haven't had the luck.
I live in Florida so I can only go to the trop. Anytime next season are you going to Tropicana field? If you are please tell me.
Hey, I don't even know what I'm doing next week but maybe I'll see you there someday.
Who doesn’t love watching this? I know I am addicted! Much love from China
Thanks so much!
Cool to see Moneyball Steve out there in the Pavilions!
Zack you should come to a AA ball game in Chattanooga we are home to the Chattanooga Lookouts witch have legendary players in the baseball Hall of fame
Maybe someday!
Hey Zack the Cardinals are going to win the World Series. What is your favorite baseball team Zack?
The Savannah Bananas.
How do you get in to the game so early most gates don’t open until an hour before game time?
I put that info in the description.
Ur just the legend of getting baseballs ⚾️
I know kids will be kids but holy cow, imagine a player having a 100+ kids yelling "ball" every time they touch a ball. Would get annoying quickly lol
Yes, much like seagulls more than hawks
Did you know they’re tearing down the reading fighting Phillies stadium to put in a new one?
Wait, for real?
Yep there putting in a new stadium are you going to come back to see the new stadium in 2023 ? There making it bigger would you come back to see it some time soon
Update: so they’re not tearing down the whole thing. I talked to one of the office managers today & they’re putting in new offices, new showers & a new building. He said they’re not touching any of the entrances.
You lucky you get the Vesia ball. I really like Vesia
No way! At 12:58 when that dude caught that home run the guy to the left of him is the owner of my company! This is wild LOL. Shout out to golden ticket cinemas!
:o
Sup Zack let’s see who faces the braves Phillies or cardinals home let’s see Albert pojols hit 711 at Busch stadium and see
Yo. Gonna be entertaining for sure.
Is Madison bumgardner really worth the price of admission anymore since his move to the diamondbacks
Probably not.
one time I showed up to a twins game an hour before I could get in but season ticket holders could get in so I sat there watching them go in and have all the fun and I was sitting there waiting impatiently to get in the stadium
That's annoying.
Did you consider staying for Albert Pujols 700th in LA or was this days before that series? ⚾️
I considered it, but I had non-baseball plans in NYC. Awful timing. I wouldn't have caught 700 anyway, but might've been really close on 699.
Zack, you would show up to Dodger stadium when I was gone out of state. ☹️ I hope to catch you at a game sometime man.
D'oh! Someday it will happen.
Hey Zack I watch your videos a lot and I’ll always wanted to get a baseball from dodger stadium
Thanks for watching. I hope you get one someday.
Good stuff Zack I went to the white sox game yesterday caught my first foul ball on the fly last game for the season and that catch was the best ever I could imagine you how many you caught
Awesome! Hope you get more next year.
My friend and I got to see you at the Yankees Orioles game, I got a photo with you but he didn’t it but I wanted to point out it was very nice of you to reply to his comment on your last video. Love the content🎉
Hi! I try to be nice. Glad you saw me. :)
I hope you were in Texas for Judges 62
I was.
@@zackhample that wasnt you that hopped the railing was it? 🤭🤭🤭🥺
ya shoulda stuck around for the Cardinals on the following Friday...
I know.
How did they let you in the park so early?
Zack make a shout out to me
I thought you hated LA
They were nice to me this time.
I feel like that's the first time you've blatantly swore on camera 14:06
It's not but I try to keep it to a minimum.
Great video- and glad you got the ball back to that kid after he threw it! I like how you give kids baseballs and all and I also always love Dodger Stadium- glad I have been there as I have said before- look forward to seeing what else you do and into the upcoming postseason as wel!!
Thanks! Probably not doing much for a bit except catching up on videos and relaxing.
10:43 There's one for the fireplace.
Heh... shows the seconds... 2:34...
Did you ever hear back from the Rockies about the fiasco?
Nope and I've even tried calling them and leaving voicemails. Nothing. I will not quit.
What will your first playoff game of 2022 be at Citi Field
Not sure I'm going there at all.
Great video. Funny how no one is jumping down the dudes throat for keeping Judges 62nd and possibly selling it for 2 mil +. Keep doing your thing. The unwarranted hate is too real
Soooooooo funny. 🙄
@@zackhample All you can do is keep making banger content. Kinda sad it's almost the end of the season and the legendary Zack Hample will soon go into hibernation
So when did Zach start Drinking DASANI?
He doesn’t. He bought the bottle , dumped it out and filled it with gross fountain water.
7:36 that made me laugh idk why
That dodgers fan who caught Mookies HR totally robbed you with a nice catch! You actually timed your jump so perfectly but as you went for it either he stuck his glove in front of yours at the last second or your glove and out stretched arm ended up going right behind his since that guys seat was just above you in that elevated section. He had a way better vantage point at it I mean talk about bring at the right place at the right time. But when I slowed it down to replay it he definitely got his glove right in front of yours some how. When you said you thought you had felt the ball going in your mit well what you probably felt was the pressure of his glove going into yours from the force of the ball landing into his mit. It definitely ended up pushing his glove right into yours for an amazing robbery and I'd be livid over it too! Good try tho bro and heck of a catch by that guy!
Thanks. Yeah, it's hard to compete with someone who's elevated about four feet above me.
@@zackhample yeah no doubt plus if that other dodger fan wasn't draped all over you too from the side it's hard to get a clean shot at it like that
young at heart hey zac
I should’ve went to the pavilion I was behind the plate the whole time 😢
Dang.
Glad to see you had no problems with Dodger security this time. Maybe they have learned a lesson from last year. If the Dodgers make it to the World Series you going to come out for a game?
They were great and the guards in LF went out of their way to make me feel welcomed. I'm hoping not to be on another airplane this year.
@@zackhample maybe the letters helped them understand the value of some UA-camrs. Who knows but glad they treated you with respect this time around.
Postseason Zack lock in
Hey Zack I saw you last Friday on the Yankees vs oriole’s game with my friend. Do you know when that video will come out. It was a pleasure meeting such a great person like you in yankee stadium. Hope you the best in playoffs for ball snagging.
Hey, thanks. Not sure I will post that video, but if I do, I guess it'll be out on Tuesday or Wednesday?
@@zackhample thank you
